Nichicon VA Series Functional Polymer Capacitors (FPCAPs) are conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitors that have a resin-molded chip construction and improved frequencyThe number of complete cycles or vibrations per unit of time. Rate of alternation in an AC current. Expressed in cycles per second or hertz (Hz). & temperature characteristics by using a functional polymer cathodeThe negative electrodeA solid electric conductor through which an electric current enters or leaves in a medium of a capacitor..

The VA series FPCAPs from Nichicon are part of a multi-series product family that offers low ESRLow Equivalent Series ResistanceLow Equivalent Series ResistanceLow Equivalent Series Resistance at high frequencyThe number of complete cycles or vibrations per unit of time. Rate of alternation in an AC current. Expressed in cycles per second or hertz (Hz). and high ripple currentThis applies to a DC application with a superimposed AC voltage. The ripple current rating is the maximum AC current the capacitor can handle. capability.
