AVX - New software helps designers to select proper power supply capacitors

Enhancing its free SpiCalci Software, SpiCalci 5.0 has been unveiled by AVX. It guides designers to select the proper switch mode power supply (SMPS) capacitor to match application requirements.

The upgraded SpiCalci 5.0 SMPS software incorporates AVX's newest capacitor technologies, including TurboCap, the rugged MH Series and the expanded MIL PRF 49470 product offering. In addition, the software allows the user to select critical parameters, build a part number, and view charts such as ESR, impedance versus frequency, temperature change versus applied current, and maximum current over frequency.

AVX's SMPS capacitors are 'uniquely' suited to filtering capacitors on the input and output of power supplies or as snubber capacitors. The SpiCalci 5.0 software ensures users select the appropriate capacitor and performance characteristics for their application, says the company.

"AVX has an established twenty year history of SMPS stacked capacitors serving the space, avionics and military industries. In addition, AVX maintains the largest profile of QPL items and approvals for the SMPS market. The SpiCalci 5.0 software will aide designers in selecting the appropriate value of capacitor to meet the demands of their individual application," said Scott Harris, AVX marketing manager.
