| As a vertical market, “Defense Electronics” encompasses a huge range of systems, from portable communications to transportation, avionics and ship borne radar. While the power architectures are as diverse as they could be, all have common operational demands – they must be robust (shock, vibration, temperature extremes), highly reliable, able to power-up after periods of dormancy and based on components with minimal obsolescence. AVX can improve power distribution quality, over a wide spectrum of signal types from digital to RF power, through implementation of various low inductance, low ESR power filter capacitors. These innovative input and output capacitors employ novel technology designed to positively impact power supply noise in battery, fuel cell, and avionic systems. In addition to capacitor solutions, there are other passive designs for circuit protection that are necessary to maintain signal integrity while containing ESD events and controlling EMI emission and susceptibility. |
