SIST EN 60384-23:2015

Fixed capacitors for use in electronic equipment - Part 23: Sectional specification - Fixed surface mount metallized polyethylene naphthalate film dielectric DC capacitors

This part of IEC 60384 is applicable to fixed surface mount capacitors for direct current, with
metallized electrodes and polyethylene naphthalate dielectric for use in electronic equipment.
These capacitors have metallized connecting pads or soldering strips and are intended to be
mounted directly onto substrates for hybrid circuits or onto printed boards. These capacitors
may have "self-healing properties" depending on conditions of use. They are primarily
intended for applications where the a.c. component is small with respect to the rated voltage.
Capacitors for radio interference suppression are not included, they are covered by
IEC 60384-14.

Condensateurs fixes utilisés dans les équipements électroniques - Partie 23: Spécification intermédiaire - Condensateurs fixes pour montage en surface pour courant continu à diélectrique en film de polynaphtalate d'éthylène métallisé

L'IEC 60384-23:2015 s'applique aux condensateurs fixes pour courant continu à électrodes métallisées et à diélectrique en polynaphtalate d'éthylène destinés aux équipements électroniques. Ces condensateurs sont équipés de contacts de connexion métallisés ou de bandes de brasure et sont destinés à être montés directement sur des substrats pour circuits hybrides ou sur des cartes imprimées. Ces condensateurs peuvent avoir des propriétés d'autorégénération en fonction des conditions d'utilisation. Ils sont principalement destinés à des applications dans lesquelles la composante alternative est petite par rapport à la tension assignée. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
a) Révision de toutes les parties du document en se basant sur les Directives ISO/IEC, Partie 2:2011 (sixième édition) et sur l'harmonisation d'autres types de documents similaires.
b) Révision des tableaux et de l'Article 4 pour éviter les duplications et les contradictions.

Pritrjeni kondenzatorji za uporabo v elektronski opremi - 23. del: Področna specifikacija: pritrjeni enosmerni kondenzatorji za površinsko namestitev z dielektrikom iz metaliziranega polietilenskega naftalatnega filma

Ta del standarda IEC 60384 se uporablja za pritrjene kondenzatorje za površinsko namestitev za enosmerne napetosti z metaliziranimi elektrodami in polietilenskim naftalatnim dielektrikom za uporabo v elektronski opremi. Ti kondenzatorji imajo metalizirane priključne blazinice ali varilne trakove ter so namenjeni namestitvi neposredno na podloge za hibridne tokokroge ali na tiskana vezja. Ti kondenzatorji imajo lahko »samoozdravljive lastnosti«, odvisno od pogojev uporabe. Namenjeni so predvsem uporabam, pri katerih je izmenična komponenta majhna glede na nazivno napetost. Kondenzatorji za preprečevanje radijskih motenj niso vključeni, vendar so zajeti v standardu IEC 60384-14.

FIXED CAPACITORS FOR USE IN ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT –

Part 23: Sectional specification – Fixed metallized polyethylene
naphthalate film dielectric surface mount d.c. capacitors

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60384-23 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 40:
Capacitors and resistors for electronic equipment.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2005 and constitutes a
technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) Revised all parts of the document based on the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2:2011 (sixth
edition) and harmonization between other similar kinds of documents.
b) Revised tables and Clause 4 so as to prevent duplications and contradictions.

FIXED CAPACITORS FOR USE IN ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT –

Part 23: Sectional specification – Fixed metallized polyethylene
naphthalate film dielectric surface mount d.c. capacitors



1 General
1.1 Scope
This part of IEC 60384 is applicable to fixed surface mount capacitors for direct current, with
metallized electrodes and polyethylene naphthalate dielectric for use in electronic equipment.
These capacitors have metallized connecting pads or soldering strips and are intended to be
mounted directly onto substrates for hybrid circuits or onto printed boards. These capacitors
may have "self-healing properties" depending on conditions of use. They are primarily
intended for applications where the a.c. component is small with respect to the rated voltage.
Capacitors for radio interference suppression are not included, they are covered by
IEC 60384-14.
1.2 Object
The object of this standard is to prescribe preferred ratings and characteristics and to select
from IEC 60384-1, the appropriate quality assessment procedures, tests and measuring
methods and to give general performance requirements for this type of capacitor. Test
severities and requirements prescribed in detail specifications referring to this sectional
specification shall be of equal or higher performance level, lower performance levels are not
permitted.
1.3 Normative references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and
are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For
undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any
amendments) applies.
