Vishay Intertechnology announced that its VY1 and VY2 series of AC line rated ceramic disc safety capacitors are now extended by a Mini Size Series with Y5V ceramic dielectrics.

The Y5V dielectric of the devices provides a higher dielectric constant, allowing for a reduction in diameter without losing capacitance value.

The Vishay BCcomponents VY1…Y5V and VY2…Y5V are designed to save space, lower costs, and increase reliability for Class X1 (760 VAC) / Y1 (500 VAC) and Class X1 (440 VAC) / Y2 (300 VAC) applications, respectively, in accordance with IEC 60384-14.4.

The VY1…Y5V and VY2…Y5V are optimized for RFI and AC line filtering applications in compact power supplies, power adapters for home automation devices, E-meters, home appliances, consumer electronics, and industrial equipment. The Mini Size Series safety capacitors offer a capacitance range from 1,000 pF to 10,000 pF — with tolerances of ±20% — and may be operated from -40 °C to +125 °C.
