AVX has expanded its BestCap Series to include an ultra-low ESR double layer capacitors with an expanded temperature range from -40º to 75ºC.

Ideal for wireless applications, the capacitor series features high capacitance values and power pulse characteristics for high current, short pulse applications including GSM /GPRS wireless based systems, USB modems, automatic meter reading systems, hand held scanners, battery chatter, dying gasp and memory back-up systems.

The BestCap double layer capacitors are available in three different standard sizes with voltage ratings from 3V to 15V and a capacitance range from 6.8 milli-farad to 1 Farad.

The three standard sizes for the BestCap capacitor include BZ05 (20*15 mm), BZ01 (28*17 mm) and BZ02 (48*30 mm). The BZ05 size offers the most aggressive capacitance value offering of 68 milli-farads at 5.5V and 6.8 milli-farads at 15V. The BZ02 has the largest capacitance value with 1 Farad at 5.5V and 68 milli-farads at 15V

Typical pricing for the double layer capacitors start at $2.90 each with delivery from stock to 10 weeks.
