Built for +125&amp;#176;C . Next-generation power electronics, whether in xEV traction inverters, onboard chargers, or industrial converters, are pushing DC link designs to their thermal limits. That’s exactly where the B3271xP DC link film capacitors are engineered to perform. Designed for operation up to +125 &amp;#176;C and no derating up to +105 &amp;#176;C, the B3271xP series delivers stable capacitance, high ripple current capability, and long-term reliability even in tightly packed, high-power environments. Low ESR, robust self-healing MKP dielectric, and automotive-grade compliance make it a solid foundation for demanding inverter architectures.

While Copper-Graphene composites are exciting for high-power cables, applying them to Multilayer Piezo Actuators presents unique challenges. Piezo actuators are dynamic components - they physically expand and contract millions of times. A major challenge with adding graphene is adhesion ; graphene’s natural lubricity could weaken the bond between the electrode and the ceramic, leading to delamination over time. Furthermore, our HAS technology relies on a precise co-firing process; maintaining the integrity of graphene at the high temperatures required to sinter piezo-ceramics is technically difficult. Currently, pure copper provides the perfect balance of high conductivity, excellent adhesion, and cost stability. While we monitor all advanced material trends, our focus remains on the structural robustness that allows our copper-based actuators to reach over 100 million cycles in extreme humidity. Thank you for your question.</description></item><item><title /><link>https://community.element14.com/products/manufacturers/tdk/b/blog/posts/silver-price-hikes-don-t-worry-tdk-has-the-answer?CommentId=83cf1125-d6c7-48c7-a2e1-094c14e7c27c</link><pubDate>Mon, 11 May 2026 18:16:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:83cf1125-d6c7-48c7-a2e1-094c14e7c27c</guid><dc:creator>embeddedguy</dc:creator><description>I personally do not like price hikes.

Silver prices have surged and with them, the cost and risk profile of conventional piezo designs. But what if the solution isn’t about managing volatility… but eliminating dependency altogether? At TDK, we’re taking a different route: Replacing silver with copper Stabilizing cost structures Increasing reliability in humid environments Our copper-based HAS technology doesn’t just respond to market pressure, it redefines the baseline for performance, durability, and scalability across applications like nano-positioning in semiconductor manufacturing, in medical drug delivery, and in AI infrastructure.

Power electronics are evolving faster than ever and conventional DC link capacitors are starting to hold engineers back. At the heart of this shift: wide-bandgap semiconductors (like SiC and GaN) that demand higher power density, elevated temperatures, and ultra-fast switching on next-generation converters. Traditional film capacitor tech struggles under these conditions. That’s why we developed the ModCap UHP series. Built around a newly engineered high-temperature dielectric, ModCap UHP delivers: Continuous operation at +105 &amp;#176;C without derating Up to 20 % higher current density and more compact DC link designs Outstanding thermal stability and reliability in the toughest environments Whether it’s renewable energy, industrial drives, or SiC power modules , this breakthrough lets designers push performance without compromise.
