IEC TS 63337:2024 provides requirements, test conditions and tests to validate characteristics including the service life of customized DC-link film capacitors for use in motor vehicle components.
Standard DC-link capacitors qualified according to other IEC standards or AEC-Q200 are excluded from the scope of this document.
The requirements, test conditions and tests listed in this document apply to customized film capacitors developed for use in motor vehicle power electronics for the application as a DC-link capacitor in HV applications or in the intermediate circuit of the 48 V on-board electrical system.
These qualification requirements can be expanded or adapted for the application of technologically innovative designs, if necessary. The content and scope of supplements is therefore to be specified and documented in coordination between the responsible parties prior to sourcing.
Power electronics in the motor vehicle need to be tested in accordance with the environmental qualification standards of the vehicle manufacturers.
The tests in this document do not replace the tests specified in the Component Requirement Specifications for complete vehicle components or additional or deviating further requirements, test conditions and tests described therein.
This document contains no tests to validate the thermal interface between capacitors, power electronics and the cooling system on the component level.

Solid-liquid phase-change materials (PCM) are a favoured approach to spacecraft passive thermal control for incident orbital heat fluxes or when there are wide fluctuations in onboard equipment.
The PCM thermal control system consists of a container which is filled with a substance capable of undergoing a phase-change. When there is an the increase in surface temperature of spacecraft the PCM absorbs the excess heat by melting. If there is a temperature decrease, then the PCM can provide heat by solidifying.
Many types of PCM systems are used in spacecrafts for different types of thermal transfer control.
Characteristics and performance of phase control materials are described in this Part. Existing PCM systems are also described.
