Murata has together with Shizuki Electric Co., Inc. (hereafter called “Shizuki Electric”) developed the FH series of heat-resistant film capacitors which can be used in a high-temperature environment of 125°C. These products are ideally suited for converters and motor drive inverters for environmentally friendly automobiles, or other applications requiring high-temperature performance.
Samples are scheduled to be available in September, with mass production beginning in April.
