The MKP1848H is Vishay's AEC-Q200 qualified and high-robustness DC-Link series. Withstanding temperature humidity bias (THB) testing of +85°C/85% R.H. for 1000 hours at rated voltage without altering its electrical characteristics, it ensures extremely stable capacitance and ESR values over a long service life under harsh environmental conditions.
This makes the robust devices ideal for outdoor applications or in other harsh environments, e.g. automotive on- and off-board chargers or DC/DC converters, renewable energy inverters, motor drives, welding equipment, UPS, and others.
In addition to the MKP1848H, Vishay offers a broad variety of other DC-Link series also for less harsh environments.
