jb JFG Series: Cycloidal & Flat Oval Designs for High Voltage Demands


In high voltage designs, structure matters. The way a film capacitor is built — whether in a cycloidal body or a flat oval form — directly affects not only how it fits your board layout, but also how it handles thermal expansion, electrical stress, and long-term reliability.

The jb JFG Series offers both options: JFGA / JFGC (Cycloidal) and JFGB / JFGD (Flat Oval). These designs are paired with polyester (PET) or polypropylene (PP) dielectric films, and come in ratings up to 1250VDC — making them ideal for energy-dense, mission-critical circuits.

So, which structure is right for your project?

If your layout needs a component with more height tolerance and compact footprint, the cycloidal version may be your best fit. On the other hand, if you’re working with space-limited vertical profiles or dense modules, the flat oval design will provide easier stacking and tighter spacing.

Both options offer excellent self-healing properties, low dissipation factor, and consistent dielectric performance across temperature and frequency ranges.

How Engineers Choose SMD Electrolytic Capacitors – A Guide to Size, Stability, and Life Rating

How Engineers Choose SMD Electrolytic Capacitors – A Guide to Size, Stability, and Life Rating

  Choosing the right SMD aluminum electrolytic capacitor may seem straightforward at first glance—but experienced engineers know that it’s anything but simple.

Between ripple current demands, size constraints, expected product lifespan, and operating temperature range, capacitor selection has become a critical factor in ensuring long-term reliability for power circuits and embedded systems.

It Starts with the Right Questions

Before any footprint is locked or BOM finalized, smart design teams ask themselves:

  • What ripple current will this circuit generate at full load?
  • What’s the thermal profile of the surrounding components?
  • Can this capacitor maintain performance after thousands of hours at 105°C?
  • Does a smaller capacitor compromise reflow survivability or ESR stability?

These aren’t just spec sheet curiosities—they’re real selection criteria that impact reliability, cost, and even warranty planning.

Size Is a Factor—But Not the Only One

With PCB space at a premium, it's easy to assume the smallest capacitor is always the best choice. But here’s the reality:

Choosing the right spec is not the same as choosing the smallest part.

A compact form factor is helpful—but only when paired with proper ripple handling, lifespan durability, and thermal stability. Otherwise, the part may pass early testing but fail in long-term use, costing time and revenue downstream.

A Quick Breakdown of the Specs That Matter

Here’s what many engineers prioritize when evaluating aluminum SMD capacitors:

Spec Parameter Why It Matters
Rated Ripple Current Impacts power stability, especially in DC-DC or PWM circuits
Endurance @ 105°C Indicates expected lifespan under high-temp continuous load
Operating Temperature Wider range = better suitability for outdoor or harsh systems
ESR / Impedance Affects heat generation and voltage regulation
Size / Height Important for layout, but shouldn’t override functional needs

How jb Capacitors Simplifies Selection

At jb capacitors, we’ve developed the JCG, JCX, and JCY series of SMD aluminum electrolytic capacitors to address real-world engineering concerns—not just marketing specs:

  • JCG – Up to 7000H @ 105°C, ideal for long-life requirements
  • JCX / JCY – Rated for -55°C to +105°C, enabling broader deployment
  • JCY – Supports high ripple current, optimized for switching regulators
  • All models are SMT-ready and compatible with modern reflow processes

Explore the Full Spec, Not Just the Size

When selecting your next jb SMD aluminum electrolytic capacitor, go beyond just physical dimensions. Focus on actual performance under stress, ripple demands, and thermal tolerance.

What Engineers Look for in Digital Adjustment Knobs – A Quick Guide to Size, Turns, and Shaft Fit

JBR Digital Knob Banner

  Choosing the right digital adjustment knob isn't just about looks—it's about finding the right combination of size, turn range, display clarity, and shaft compatibility. For engineers designing compact or modular control panels, even a small mismatch in specifications can lead to integration delays or operational inefficiencies.

1. Outer Diameter Matters More Than You Think

Whether it’s a crowded PCB or a tight enclosure, the diameter of the knob must align with available panel space. Oversized knobs might interfere with neighboring components, while knobs that are too small can be hard to grip or read.

Common options like 46mm or 22mm diameters give engineers flexibility depending on control density and layout constraints.

2. Not All Turn Counts Serve the Same Purpose

**Knobs with 0–9 or 0–14 turns** cater to different levels of adjustment precision. - 9-turn options are suitable for general tuning or resistance control - 14-turn models allow **high-resolution adjustments** in precision-critical systems

Choosing based on expected use-case—fine tuning vs. rough positioning—can dramatically improve control accuracy.

3. Shaft Compatibility Can Make or Break Your Design

Engineers often overlook shaft size and shape until late in the design process. Digital knobs must fit tightly onto shafts (Φ4mm or Φ6.35mm being most common) to ensure consistent operation without slippage or wobble.

It’s also important to consider mounting method—screw-fixed knobs offer stronger durability and quicker assembly for industrial use.

Looking for a Reference?

Understanding Surge Protection: How jb JVX MOV Keeps Your Devices Safe

  In today's increasingly electronic-driven world, voltage surges can be a major threat to the longevity and functionality of sensitive equipment. Whether caused by lightning strikes, power grid fluctuations, or electrical system failures, voltage surges can cause serious damage to circuits and devices. This article explores the origins of voltage surges, compares different surge protection technologies, and highlights the advantages of the jb JVX MOV in safeguarding your electronic equipment.

The Origins of Voltage Surges

Voltage surges occur when there is a sudden increase in electrical power that exceeds the standard voltage level. This can happen for several reasons, including lightning strikes, power grid switching, or even faulty electrical equipment. When a surge occurs, it can travel through power lines and reach your electronic devices, causing internal damage to sensitive components like capacitors, resistors, or integrated circuits.

Without proper surge protection, your devices are vulnerable to these spikes, which can lead to system malfunctions, shortened device lifespan, and expensive repairs or replacements. Protecting your circuits from such surges is crucial to ensuring their stability and longevity.

MOV vs. Other Surge Protection Technologies

When it comes to protecting against voltage surges, there are several options available in the market. Let’s compare MOVs (Metal Oxide Varistors) with other common surge protection technologies like TVS diodes:

  • MOVs: MOVs are the most widely used surge protection devices due to their high surge absorption capacity and reliability. MOVs operate by redirecting excessive voltage to the ground, preventing it from damaging sensitive components in your devices. They are highly cost-effective and can withstand multiple surges over time without degrading.

  • TVS Diodes: Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) diodes offer fast response times to voltage spikes. However, they tend to have lower surge-handling capabilities compared to MOVs, making them less suitable for high-energy surges. TVS diodes are also more sensitive to heat and wear over time.

  • Other Protection Technologies: Other options, such as fuses or gas discharge tubes (GDTs), are used for surge protection but are often less efficient in handling large surges compared to MOVs. These technologies may provide protection but may not offer the same level of durability and cost-effectiveness as MOVs.

The Stability Advantages of jb JVX MOV

The jb JVX MOV stands out as an ideal solution for surge protection due to its superior stability and high surge absorption capacity. Here’s how it helps lower maintenance costs and enhances product lifespan:

  • Durability: The jb JVX MOV is designed to withstand multiple surges without degrading in performance, ensuring long-term reliability. This durability reduces the need for frequent replacements and minimizes maintenance costs.

  • High Surge Absorption: With its advanced material composition, the jb JVX MOV can absorb high-energy surges effectively, protecting sensitive circuits from damage. This is crucial for preventing expensive repair or replacement costs caused by voltage spikes.

  • Versatile Applications: The jb JVX MOV is suitable for a wide range of applications, from consumer electronics to industrial equipment, making it an invaluable tool for protecting devices across various industries.

Conclusion

Voltage surges are a serious threat to the reliability and lifespan of electronic devices. By choosing the right surge protection technology, you can safeguard your equipment and reduce the risk of costly repairs.
