Dissipation Factor
When measured at 1kHz, the dissipation factor shall not exceed
0.3% from +25°C to +125°C.
Dielectric Strength
Capacitors shall withstand a DC potential of 200% rated
voltage for two (2) minutes without damage or
breakdown. Test voltage must be applied and
discharged through a resistance of 1 OHM per volt,
minimum and at 25°C.

ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION
The MC0 Series is a new polycarbonate,
capacitor developed by Electronic Concepts to meet the
ever changing, more demanding requirements of circuit designers. Although not called for, it is built to
MIL-PRF-55514 to maximize reliability. The MC0 Series is
designed for low-drift, tight
tolerance applications that require voltage to 400VDC, a continuous operating temperature to 125°C and
of ±100ppm and a
capacitance tolerance as low as 1%. There is also a temperature
dissipation factor <0.3%. Importantly, the MC0 Series features a unique dual moisture seal construction
(versus the single seal method of others). Dual sealing ensures greater overall electrical integrity with
long term stability - and imparts the ability to accommodate adverse environments normally associated
with the electronic industry.
With the introduction of the MC0 Series, the designer can now build in more performance with
greater reliability and operating protection. Plus overall system cost savings can often be realized.

Marking and Date Code
All capacitors are marked with company initials "EC", corporate logo or EC trademark—in addition to type MC0, capacitance,
two digits of the date code represent the year, the second two digits the
tolerance, rated DC working voltage and date code. The
week, i.e., 0952 is the 52nd week of 2009, 0902 is the second week of 2009.
Quality Assurance
Major emphasis is placed on quality assurance. EC is an ISO 9001-2000 and AS9100:2004
Company. Raw material
inspection and the use of SPC manufacturing procedures assure the highest quality standards. Procedures are fully described in the
EC Quality Control Manual. Electronic Concepts will continue to advance the state-of-the-art by utilizing leading edge technology,
compact capacitor designs and establishing reliability procedures.
