A50

General Purpose, Pulse and DC Transient Suppression
A50 Series Metallized Polyester Film, Axial, 50 – 1,000 VDC
(Automotive Grade)
Overview
Applications
The A50 Series is constructed of metallized polyester film
(wound technology) with axial leads of tinned wire. Axial leads
are electrically welded to the contact metal layer on the ends of
the capacitor winding. The capacitor is encapsulated in polyester
tape wrapping with thermosetting resin end filled.
Typical applications include blocking, coupling, decoupling,
bypassing and interference suppression in low voltage
applications such as automotive. Not suitable for across-the-line
application (see Suppressor Capacitors).
Automotive grade devices are available and meet the demanding
Automotive Electronics Council's AEC–Q200 qualification
requirements.

Film Capacitors General Purpose – Pulse and DC Transient Suppression
A50 Series Metallized Polyester Film, Axial, 50 – 1,000 VDC (Automotive Grade)
Soldering Process
The implementation of the RoHS directive has resulted in the selection of SnAgCu (SAC) alloys or SnCu alloys as primary solder. This has
increased the liquidus temperature from that of 183ºC for SnPb eutectic alloy to 217 – 221ºC for the new alloys. As a result, the heat stress
to the components, even in wave soldering, has increased considerably due to higher pre-heat and wave temperatures. Polypropylene
capacitors are especially sensitive to heat (the melting point of polypropylene is 160 – 170ºC). Wave soldering can be destructive, especially
for mechanically small polypropylene capacitors (with lead spacing of 5 mm to 15 mm), and great care has to be taken during soldering. The
recommended solder profiles from KEMET should be used. Please consult KEMET with any questions. In general, the wave soldering curve
from IEC Publication 61760-1 Edition 2 serves as a solid guideline for successful soldering. Please see Figure 1.
Reflow soldering is not recommended for through-hole film capacitors. Exposing capacitors to a soldering profile in excess of the above the
recommended limits may result to degradation or permanent damage to the capacitors.
Do not place the polypropylene capacitor through an adhesive curing oven to cure resin for surface mount components. Insert throughhole parts after the curing of surface mount parts. Consult KEMET to discuss the actual temperature profile in the oven, if through-hole
components must pass through the adhesive curing process. A maximum two soldering cycles is recommended. Please allow time for the
capacitor surface temperature to return to a normal temperature before the second soldering cycle.

Selective Soldering Recommendations
Selective dip soldering is a variation of reflow soldering. In this method, the printed circuit board with through-hole components to be
soldered is preheated and transported over the solder bath as in normal flow soldering without touching the solder. When the board is
over the bath, it is stopped and pre-designed solder pots are lifted from the bath with molten solder only at the places of the selected
components, and pressed against the lower surface of the board to solder the components.
The temperature profile for selective soldering is similar to the double wave flow soldering outlined in this document, however, instead
of two baths, there is only one bath with a time from 3 to 10 seconds. In selective soldering, the risk of overheating is greater than
in double wave flow soldering, and great care must be taken so that the parts are not overheated.
