ITW PAKTRON - CAP296 - Polystyrene. 0.082uF 100V.

ITW PAKTRON - CAP296 – Polystyrene Film, 0.082uF 100V, Axial Leads. ITW Illinois Tool Works, Lynchburg Virginia ITW Paktron polystyrene film capacitors are well-regarded for their high precision and stability, making them suitable for demanding analog and audio applications where accuracy is critical. The demise of polystyrene capacitors began in 1990 when the suppliers felt that thin-sheet capacitor dielectric material was too much effort for such a small part of their product line. Capacitor manufacturers placed large onetime orders to satisfy the demand for this precision-type of dielectric material. The polystyrene capacitor was the device of choice for precision-tuned circuits due to the extreme stability in the 0°C thru +50°C range as well as long-term stability. The major drawback of this dielectric was the maximum operating temperature of +85°C, the glass transition temperature of ~95°C, and a fluid temperature of +100°C, making applications for this device limited. Capacitance: 0.082uF 8,200 pF Tolerance: 5%. Voltage: 100V. Temperature: 0 C to 50 C Shape: Tubular Case: Axial Leads. Dimensions: 0.229" (5.8mm) Diameter x 0.613 (15.5mm) Long. Applications: Polystyrene capacitors are highly valued in the audiophile community for their very low distortion, making them ideal for use in: Guitar amplifiers, Power amplifiers and preamps, Crossover networks, Replacing ceramic and mica capacitors in sensitive audio signal paths. Also popular use is in I.F transformers, tuned circuits, pulse networks, laboratory standards, timing circuits, analogue and digital computing circuits and many other applications where superior qualities are used to advantage.
