4702-000MLF

Overview

The 4702-000MLF is a feedthrough capacitor from the Tusonix 4702 series, designed for EMI/RFI suppression. It features a capacitance of 100 pF with a tolerance of -20%, +80%. The component is rated for 100 V DC and supports a maximum current of 20 A. It exhibits an insertion loss of 1 dB at 100 MHz. The physical package is a square pill type, measuring 0.315 inches in length, 0.090 inches in width, and 0.095 inches in maximum height. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides effective electromagnetic interference filtering through feedthrough architecture
• Supports high current handling capabilities up to 20 Amperes
• Utilizes a compact surface-mountable square pill form factor

Applications

• Power supply input filtering
• Signal line noise suppression
• Electronic equipment chassis grounding

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific capacitance value against design requirements, as datasheet listings vary between 100 pF and 4000 pF for this part number across different distributors. Confirm the manufacturer suffix 'MLF' indicates lead-free compliance. Ensure the selected packaging option matches assembly line capabilities, as availability varies between tape and reel formats.

Selection Notes

Select this component when low capacitance values are required for high-frequency signal integrity alongside power lines. The 20 A rating allows use in main power feeds where standard capacitors would fail. Consider the 100 V DC rating for low-voltage DC systems. The square pill package facilitates easy panel mounting or PCB integration depending on the specific mechanical constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Tusonix 4702 series of feedthrough capacitors manufactured by CTS Electronic Components. The series is characterized by its robust construction and ability to handle significant current loads while providing attenuation for radio frequency interference. These components are widely used in industrial and commercial electronics requiring reliable EMI protection.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 100 pF feedthrough capacitors from the same series, such as 4702-000LF. Verify that any replacement maintains the 20 A current rating and 100 V DC voltage rating. Check dimensional compatibility with existing board layouts or panel cutouts.
