Vishay / BC Components AY1 Automotive Grade AC Safety Capacitors

Vishay / BC Components AY1 Automotive Grade AC Capacitors are ceramic disc capacitors with Class X1 and Class Y1 versions. The Class X1 capacitors are designed for 760V_AC rated voltage and Class Y1 capacitors are designed for 500V_AC rated voltage. These capacitors withstand 85/85/1000h test and are able to pass 1000 temperature cycles. The AY1 safety capacitors are AEC-Q200 qualified and feature high reliability and single layer AC disk. Typical applications include capacitors for AC line filter and primary-secondary coupling on battery chargers and filter capacitors on DC/DC converters for PHEV/EV and HEV.

The 72-AY1-KIT-GA is a sample kit of AY1 capacitors that contains a total of 8 capacitance values with 10 pieces each. This kit offers a 20% tolerance.
