TDK expands its high-voltage switching portfolio with compact DC contactors designed to provide safety-relevant feedback in electric mobility and industrial energy systems.
A new vibration-resistant variant of TDK’s B409x SMD hybrid polymer capacitors withstands up to 30 g, delivering stable performance for high-stress automotive and industrial electronics.
TDK presents EV and fast-charging solutions at EV Tech Expo Detroit, October 7–9, 2025, featuring capacitors, sensors, magnetics, and programmable power.
Tailored for demanding automotive applications, these components offer a high-capacitance and high-ripple current solution in a space-saving format.
The components measure 140 x 59 x 50.0 mm and cover 500 V and 1000 V systems with rated currents up to 400 A at ambient temperatures of +85 °C, and transient peak currents up to 1000 A.
The new 1 kV-rated components reduce PCB floor space requirements by approximately 30% compared to traditional single-gate drive transformer designs that support equivalent insulation.
