The SP102K is a film capacitor manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE). It is a radial leaded capacitor known for its stability, reliability, and long life. Film capacitors are commonly used in applications requiring precise capacitance values and low losses.

Applications:

• Filtering in power supplies
• Audio circuits (signal coupling, decoupling, tone control)
• Timing circuits
• Sample and hold circuits
• Instrumentation and measurement equipment

Features:

• Polyester Film Dielectric
• Radial Leads
• High Stability
• Long Life
• Low Dissipation Factor
• Flame Retardant Construction

Benefits:

• Provides stable and accurate capacitance over a wide temperature range.
• Offers reliable performance in demanding applications.
• Minimizes signal distortion in audio circuits.
• Ensures accurate timing in timing circuits.
• Reduces power losses in filtering applications.

Specifications:

Since the full specifications depend on the specific voltage and capacitance value (which is not fully clear from 'SP102K' alone), the following are typical characteristics of CDE's film capacitors, and a user should consult the datasheet for the EXACT values for a specific SP102K variant:

• Capacitance: Will vary depending on the specific SP102K part number (e.g., could be 0.001 uF, 0.01 uF, etc.)
• Voltage Rating: Will vary depending on the specific SP102K part number (e.g., 50V, 100V, 250V, etc.)
• Tolerance: Typically ±10%
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to +85°C (Typical)
• Dissipation Factor: Low (Consult datasheet for specific value)

The SP102K film capacitor is a general-purpose component suitable for many electronic circuits. Its stability, reliability, and long life make it a popular choice for applications where performance and longevity are critical. When using the SP102K, always refer to the manufacturer's datasheet to determine the exact capacitance and voltage rating based on the full part number.
