EFC Series 1206 are polypropylene and foil capacitors. This series offers the advantage of superior stability, high insulation resistance, low dissipation factor, negative temperature coefficient and high frequency operation, dv/dt ratings in excess of 1000 V/ms. Suggested applications include: timing circuits, switch mode power supplies (SMPS), snubber circuits. Packaging options include: wrap and fill (TC, TF), axial lead box (EC), radial lead box (EFR (VDC), EFR (VDC/VAC)), and radial lead dipped (DFR (Standard), DFR (Miniature)). Application options include: snubber circuits (M, MF), -270 PPM/°C temperature coefficient (T1206TC), -150 PPM/°C temperature coefficient (A1206TC). 
 

• Temperature Range
  -55°C to +85°C at rated voltage. To 105°C with 25% voltage derating.
• Capacitance
  Capacitors £1.0 MFD shall be measured at 1 kHz ± 20 Hz. Capacitors >1.0 MFD shall be measured at 60 Hz. Measurements shall be taken at 25°C.
• Dielectric Strength
  At 25°C, 200% of rated voltage when applied terminal to terminal for one minute through a current limiting resistance.
• Insulation Resistance
  At 25°C after 2 minutes charge time at rated voltage or 500 VDC, whichever is less, the minimum IR shall be 200,000 Megohm-Microfarads, but need not exceed 250,000 Megohms.
• Humidity Resistance
  Series 1206 shall meet the requirements of MIL-STD. 202C, Method 103B.
• Dissipation Factor
  Shall be 0.07% max. when measured as in Par. 2.
• Life Test
  Will withstand the application of 140% rated voltage at +85°C for 250 hours with not more than one failure in 12 permitted.
