Explore CBB60, CBB61 & MPP Capacitors for AC Applications

When designing AC-powered systems, selecting the right capacitor ensures efficiency, durability, and consistent performance. In this article, we’ll explore the differences between jb’s cbb60, cbb61, and mpp capacitors—and how each fits specific AC applications.

CBB60, CBB61, and MPP: What's the Difference?

All three types are designed for AC operation, but with distinct strengths. Here's a quick comparison:

Model	Application	Case Type	Capacitance	Voltage
cbb60	Motor run (pumps, washing machines)	Round plastic	1–100μF	250/450VAC
cbb61	Fan motors, compact appliances	Square plastic	1–20μF	250/450VAC
mpp	AC filtering, PFC circuits	Film (metalized polypropylene)	Customizable	250–630VAC

Why Use jb’s MPP Capacitors in AC Circuits?

jb’s mpp capacitors are built for low loss, high insulation resistance, and long life in high-frequency AC circuits. These are commonly used in:

• Ballasts and lighting systems
• Power factor correction (PFC)
• Industrial filtering units

With excellent self-healing properties and stable electrical behavior, they’re a trusted choice for demanding applications.

Compact and Stable: JBR Series Trimmers for Circuit Tuning

 

Modern electronics demand components that are both space-saving and dependable. As circuit boards become more compact and applications more demanding, the need for reliable trimming potentiometers is greater than ever.

The JBR Series from jb Capacitors addresses this challenge by offering trimmers that are both physically compact and electrically stable.

1. Compact Designs for Space-Constrained Applications

Whether you're working with handheld devices, communication modules, or IoT hardware, board space is always at a premium. The JBR-065 model, in particular, is designed with this challenge in mind. With a miniature footprint and top-adjust design, it fits easily into tight layouts while still delivering precise tuning performance.

Common applications include:

• Wireless transmitters and receivers

• Medical devices with limited enclosure space

• Consumer gadgets that require fine tuning

2. Stable Electrical Performance Over Time

Stability is just as important as size. The JBR-3309, a sealed trimmer with a solid general-purpose design, offers consistent resistance values even after repeated adjustments and long-term use. It resists moisture and dust, making it a dependable choice for high-humidity environments and field-deployed electronics.

Key features across the series:

• Tight resistance tolerance

• Low rotational torque for easier adjustment

• Excellent aging characteristics

3. Built for Real-World Engineering Needs

The JBR series is designed with actual engineering challenges in mind:

• Available in multiple resistance values (from 10Ω to 2MΩ)

• Through-hole mounting for mechanical reliability

• Top and side adjustment options depending on layout needs

• Up to 200 cycles of mechanical adjustment life

These trimmers help engineers fine-tune everything from offset voltages in analog circuits to gain controls in signal processing modules.
