SERIES 1213
EFC Series 1213 are metallized polypropylene capacitors. This series offers the advantage
of superior stability, self healing, high insulation resistance, low dissipation factor and high
frequency operation. Suggested applications include: timing circuits, switch mode power
supplies (SMPS). Packaging options include: wrap and fill (TF, TC), radial lead box (EFR),
axial lead (EC, EF). Application options include: switching power supply (SP).
