Innovative new products at Electronica - Booth# B5 312 -

Exxelia will be exhibiting at Electronica, the biggest global trade fair for electronic components, which will take place from November 8th to 11th in Munich, Germany. On its booth # B5 312, the company will be showcasing a bunch of innovative new ranges.


Felsic HV, long lifetime and high voltage screw terminal
The Felsic HV family of aluminum electrolytic screw terminal capacitors provides great performances in energy density and ultra-long lifetime. For example products can withstand 8 000 hours at 105°C under high values of current which makes them the perfect choice to overcome railway constraints. The family also has one of the lowest ESR for aluminum capacitors, less than 10m0hms in most cases. Products are available for voltages from 160 to 450 Vdc, and offer capacitance values from 1500μF up to 47 000μF. Thus the family is a good compromise between reliability and compacity, with for example 47 000μF @ 160V in a 90x200mm volume.

Cost-effective common-mode chokes qualified for aerospace
Designed and qualified for aerospace, the TCM series is available in a through-hole package for horizontal and vertical mounting. TCM common-mode chokes are offered with inductances from 0.7 to 47mH under rated currents from 0.3A to 4A, and thoroughly tested by a dielectric withstanding strength at 1500VAC. Their excellent thermal properties allow the TCMs to operate without a hitch from -55°C up to +125°C, which, combined to the high mechanical resistance of the chosen materials (all meeting to UL94 V0 rating) make those products the perfect fit for aviation, defense and transportation industries.

Ceramic capacitors based on the new C48X dielectric
New range of high voltage ceramic capacitors based on brand new dielectric material C48X, combining most advantages of NPO and X7R dielectrics. Compared to X7R material, C48X dielectric allows to get the same capacitance values under working voltage with the unrivaled advantage of a very low dissipation factor (less than 5.10-4). Besides, it can also withstand very high dV/dt, up to 10kV/μs, which makes it the solution of choice for pulse and fast charge/discharge applications or firing units. Thus capacitors with C48X dielectric appear to be ideally suited for power applications where heat dissipation may be detrimental to performances and reliability.

Ultra low ESR, high RF power and high self-resonant frequency
The new NHB series is a complete range of MLCC based on NPO dielectric material providing a very high Self Resonant Frequency and limiting the parasite Parallel Resonant Frequencies. The series is available in 1111 size with capacitance ranging from 0.3pF to 100pF. NHB series offers excellent performance for RF power applications at high temperature up to 175°C and at 500 VDC. The lowest ESR is obtained by combining highly conductive metal electrodes and proprietary of new NPO low loss rugged dielectrics. NHB series particularly fits for high power and high frequency applications such as: cellular base station equipment, broadband wireless service, point to point / multipoint radios and broadcasting equipment.

Exxelia will integrate a cobot into its manufacturing process

Exxelia has just equipped itself with a cobot (in partnership with the company Cognitive Engines) adapted to the production needs related to the manufacture of RF High Q capacitors. The cobot is a collaborative robot designed to work hand-in-hand with operators. This technology coupled with artificial intelligence (I.A) offers a multitude of advantages including:   Quality improvement: The cobots are equipped with high performance sensors and integrated quality control systems, which allow 100% thorough visual inspection, and guarantee a high level of quality, while adapting to the movements of the operators (no occupational safety risk). Flexibility: Cobots are lightweight and adaptable. This versatility allows them to occupy different positions depending on the needs of the moment. Safety: Cobots are designed to be used in pairs with Exxelia operators and can therefore protect them from dangerous or arduous tasks, which greatly improves the quality of life at work (reduction of repetitive gestures; positive impact on musculoskeletal disorders ). Optimization of operator time: Cobots take care of low value-added tasks and let the operator focus on high-value tasks, which values ​​the contribution of operators.     By collaborating with operators, cobots can improve production quality and accuracy, while ensuring their safety. Industry 4.0 is changing the way businesses operate and the way products are designed, manufactured and delivered. Exxelia is convinced of the importance of Industry 4.0 and is positioning itself to be at the forefront of this transformation.           As a company specializing in the design and manufacture of critical electronic components for industrial applications, Exxelia pays particular attention to maintaining its extensive know-how. Exxelia uses state-of-the-art technologies to ensure the high level of quality that the applications the group serves cannot be without. The group pays particular attention to the coexistence of robotization with the mastery of manual processes held by operators to continue to offer customers the highest quality products, while remaining competitive. Adopting this technology will allow Exxelia to maintain its leadership position in its industry, while improving quality, accuracy, operator safety and production efficiency.    

Innovative new products at Electronica 2022 - Booth# A5 - 339

Electronica will take place from November 15th to 18th in Munich, Germany. On our booth #A5 - 339, we will be displaying a bunch of innovative new ranges. EMBEDDED DIVISION - AVIATION / DEFENSE / SPACE   We are proud to show our latest capacitor technology innovation called MML® technology. Miniature Micro-LayerTM Film is a breakthrough in film capacitor technology, with an energy density up to 4 times superior to other film dielectrics. MMLTM innovative technology makes power capacitors smaller, lighter and compatible to higher temperatures. It is perfect for DC link, decoupling, charge-discharge applications. Alongside MML, we will also be exhibiting innovations in magnetics, allowing saving up to 40% weight and 20% volume while dissipating more power. You will also find our new aluminum electrolytic rectangular low profile capacitors named Cubisic SLP and HTLP, our MIL & DSCC tantalum capacitors (newly qualified to reliability level P) as well as our multi-outputs CCM transformers & Dual Active Bridge. But also our components on board the eVTOL.   RAIL & INDUSTRY DIVISION   It is with great joy that we will be exhibiting Alcon capacitors for the first time on our booth. Alcon manufactures film and aluminum electrolytic capacitors that are particularly suitable for locomotives and power electricity charging stations. We will also exhibit film and ceramic capacitors for signaling, and magnetics for rail tracking system, openable current transformer, TFPP transformer and resistors.   MEDICAL DIVISION   Our new Exxelia Micropen branch has an outstanding product offer for medical products that will be showcased at Electronica for the first time ever! Indeed, Exxelia Ohmcraft high voltage resistors are widely used into laboratory equipment such as mass spectrometers or thermocyclers. We will also be showing our Exxelia Micropen unique additive printing technology used extensively for medical disposable material such as endotracheal tubes or surgical ablation tools.
