Fixed capacitors for use in electronic equipment - Part 20: Sectional specification - Fixed metallized polyphenylene sulfide film dielectric surface mount DC capacitors (IEC 60384-20:2023)

IEC 60384-20:2023 is available as which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition. IEC 60384-20:2023 is applicable to fixed surface mount capacitors for direct current, with metallized electrodes and polyphenylene sulfide dielectric for use in electronic equipment. These capacitors have metallized connecting pads or soldering strips and are intended to be mounted directly onto printed boards or onto substrates for hybrid circuits. These capacitors can have "self-healing properties" depending on conditions of use. They are primarily intended for applications where the AC component is small with respect to the rated voltage. This part of IEC 60384 specifies preferred ratings and characteristics and selects from IEC 60384-1:2021 the appropriate quality assessment procedures, tests and measuring methods, and gives general performance requirements for this type of capacitor. Test severities and requirements specified in detail specifications referring to this sectional specification are of an equal or higher performance level; lower performance levels are not permitted. Capacitors for electromagnetic interference suppression are not included but are covered by IEC 60384‑14. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- revision of all parts of the document based on the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2:2021, and harmonization with other similar kinds of documents;
- the document structure has been organized to follow new sectional specification structure decided in TC 40;

L’IEC 60384-20:2023 est applicable aux condensateurs fixes pour montage en surface pour courant continu à électrodes métallisées et à diélectrique en sulfure de polyphénylène 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 cartes imprimées ou des substrats pour circuits hybrides. Ces condensateurs peuvent avoir des propriétés "autocicatrisantes" en fonction des conditions d’utilisation. Ils sont principalement destinés à des applications dans lesquelles la composante alternative est faible par rapport à la tension assignée. La présente partie de l’IEC 60384 spécifie les valeurs assignées et caractéristiques préférentielles, sélectionne, en se référant à l’IEC 60384-1:2021, les procédures d’assurance de la qualité appropriées, les essais et les méthodes de mesure et donne les exigences de performances énérales pour ce type de condensateur. Les sévérités et les exigences des essais spécifiées dans les spécifications particulières se référant à la présente spécification intermédiaire ont un niveau de performance supérieur ou égal. Les niveaux de performance inférieurs ne sont pas autorisés. Les condensateurs d’antiparasitage ne sont pas inclus mais ils sont couverts par l’IEC 60384‑14. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente:
- révision de toutes les parties du document en s’appuyant sur les Directives ISO/IEC, Partie 2:2021, et harmonisation avec d’autres types de documents similaires;

Na voljo je standard IEC 60384-20:2023, ki vsebuje mednarodni standard in njegovo različico z revizijami, ki prikazujejo vse spremembe tehnične vsebine v primerjavi s prejšnjo izdajo. Standard IEC 60384-20:2023 se uporablja za pritrjene kondenzatorje za površinsko namestitev za enosmerne napetosti z metaliziranimi elektrodami in polietilenskim sulfidnim dielektrikom za uporabo v elektronski opremi. Ti kondenzatorji imajo pokovinjene priključne obloge ali varilne trakove in so namenjeni montaži neposredno na tiskana vezja ali na podlage za hibridne tokokroge. Ti kondenzatorji imajo lahko »samoobnovljive lastnosti«, odvisno od pogojev uporabe. Namenjeni so predvsem vrstam uporabe, pri katerih je izmenična komponenta majhna glede na nazivno napetost. Ta del standarda IEC 60384 določa prednostne vrednosti in lastnosti, ponuja izbiro primernih postopkov za ovrednotenje kakovosti, preskusov in merilnih metod iz standarda IEC 60384-1:2021 ter podaja splošne zahteve glede zmogljivosti za to vrsto kondenzatorja. Preskusne stopnje in zahteve, določene v podrobnih specifikacijah, ki se navezujejo na to področno specifikacijo, so enake ali višje ravni učinkovitosti; nižje ravni niso dovoljene. Kondenzatorji za preprečevanje elektromagnetnih motenj niso vključeni, vendar so zajeti v standardu IEC 60384-14. Ta izdaja v primerjavi s prejšnjo vključuje naslednje pomembne tehnične spremembe:
– revizijo vseh delov dokumenta na podlagi direktiv ISO/IEC, del 2:2021, in uskladitev z drugimi podobnimi dokumenti;
– struktura dokumenta je organizirana, da sledi novi strukturi področne specifikacije iz TC 40;
– spremenjene tabele in točka 5, da se prepreči podvajanje in protislovja;
– v točki 5.2 (namestitve) so bile dodane podtočke 5.2.1, 5.2.2 in 5.2.3;
– v točki 5.5 (strižni preskus) sta bili dodani podtočki 5.5.1 in 5.5.2;
– v točki 5.14 (odpornost komponent na topila) sta bili dodani podtočki 5.14.1 in 5.14.2. V tabeli 8 in tabeli A.2 je bil preskus 5.14 prestavljen pred preskus 5.7.5 (končni pregled in zahteve) v skupini 1A in podskupini C1;
– v točki 5.15 (odpornost oznak na topila) sta bili dodani podtočki 5.15.1 in 5.15.2;
– meritev tangentne izgube kota je bila dodana v preskus odpornosti proti vročini spajke;
– tabele za pregled po posameznih serijah in redne preglede, vključno z zahtevami, so prestavljene v dodatek A;
– spremenjena raven kontrole (IL) podskupine A1.

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.
IEC 60384-20 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 40: Capacitors and resistors for
electronic equipment. It is an International Standard.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2015. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) revision of all parts of the document based on the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2:2021, and
harmonization with other similar kinds of documents;
b) the document structure has been organized to follow new sectional specification structure
decided in TC 40;
c) revised tables and Clause 5 so as to prevent duplications and contradictions;
d) in Clause 5.2 (Mounting), the Subclauses 5.2.1, 5.2.2 and 5.2.3 have been added;

133 FOREWORD
134 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
135 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
136 international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
137 this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
138 Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
139 Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
140 in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
141 governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
142 with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
143 agreement between the two organizations.
144 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
145 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
146 interested IEC National Committees.
147 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
148 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
149 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
150 misinterpretation by any end user.
151 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
152 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
153 between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
154 the latter.
155 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
156 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
157 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
158 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
159 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
160 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
161 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
162 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
163 Publications.
164 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
165 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
166 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
167 patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
168 International Standard IEC 60384-20 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 40:
169 Capacitors and resistors for electronic equipment.
170 This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2015 and constitutes a
171 technical revision.
172 This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
173 edition:
174 a) revision of all parts of the document based on the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2:2021, and
175 harmonization with other similar kinds of documents;
176 b) the document structure has been organized to follow new sectional specification structure
177 decided in TC 40;
178 c) revised tables and Clause 5 so as to prevent duplications and contradictions.

206 1 Scope
207 This part of IEC 60384 is applicable to fixed surface mount capacitors for direct current, with
208 metallized electrodes and polyphenylene sulfide dielectric for use in electronic equipment.
209 These capacitors have metallized connecting pads or soldering strips and are intended to be
210 mounted directly onto printed boards or onto substrates for hybrid circuits. These capacitors
211 can have "self-healing properties" depending on conditions of use. They are primarily
212 intended for applications where the AC component is small with respect to the rated voltage.
213 This part of IEC 60384 specifies preferred ratings and characteristics, selects from
214 IEC 60384-1:2021 the appropriate quality assessment procedures, tests and measuring
215 methods and gives general performance requirements for this type of capacitor. Test
216 severities and requirements specified in detail specifications referring to this sectional
217 specification are of an equal or higher performance level. Lower performance levels are not
218 permitted.
219 Capacitors for electromagnetic interference suppression are not included, but are covered by
220 IEC 60384-14.
