The demand for inverters used in environment-related equipment such as EVs/HEVs and solar/wind power generation systems is expanding in the capacitor market. For such applications requiring enduring high voltage exceeding 500 VDC and long-term use for several tens of years along with a high level of safety, demand for film capacitors is increasing.
The move to higher bus voltages also favors film capacitor types; the same energy is stored with smaller CV ratings at high voltage (due to the 'squared' in E=CV2/2) so less capacity is needed, and film types are available with kV ratings as required.
When energy storage is not the headline parameter, large value film capacitors can be a high-performance solution. An example would be on a battery-backed DC bus such as you see in electric vehicles, alternative energy systems, and uninterruptible power supplies.
Film Capacitors Have Their Place in Power Electronics Film capacitor types certainly do have some advantages over their Al-electrolytic cousins; they can have much lower Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) for the same CV rating, which gives them typically much better ripple current ratings.
The main applications for film capacitors in power electronics are identified and guidance given on how to select appropriate film capacitor types. Detailed calculations are then given for some example circuits showing how particular capacitors and their ratings are selected.
