Cornell Dubilier Electronics introduces its Slimpack, type MLSH, the first in a series of hermetically-sealed aluminum electrolytic capacitors that the company plans to introduce over the next several months. With its glass-to-metal seal that prevents dry-out, the capacitor technology has extraordinarily long life to meet the most demanding applications for military and aerospace. With its long life and the ability to handle 80g’s of vibration, this technology is poised to replace parallel and series banks of wet tantalum capacitors for new and existing designs, especially where bulk storage is paramount. The MLSH Slimpack measuring 1.0” x 1.5” x 0.5” weighs less and has more capacitance than a parallel bank of three or more D-sized wet tantalum capacitors at -55°C.
