## Description

The 104MPW160K is a metallized polypropylene film capacitor designed for high-reliability applications requiring low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and high ripple current handling. Engineered by Cornell Dubilier, this axial-lead component features a robust construction utilizing a flame-retardant polyester tape wrap (UL 510) and epoxy resin end fills (UL94V0). With a rated voltage of 160 WVDC and a capacitance value of 0.1 µF, the device maintains stable electrical characteristics across an operating temperature range of -55°C to +105°C. The polypropylene dielectric ensures minimal capacitance drift and a low dissipation factor of 0.001 at 1 kHz, making it suitable for demanding environments.

This general-purpose capacitor is optimized for switching power supplies, high-frequency filtering, and various AC applications, excluding across-the-line service. The component exhibits a capacitance temperature coefficient ranging from -200 ppm/°C to +100 ppm/°C and provides high insulation resistance, specified at 30,000 MΩ for values below 0.33 µF. Designed for durability, the 104MPW160K withstands rigorous load life testing at 125% of rated voltage and demonstrates excellent moisture resistance under damp heat conditions. The axial lead configuration, featuring lead-free tinned terminals, facilitates straightforward integration into industrial and power conversion circuits where space-efficient, stable passive performance is required.
