Featured products
Thin film resistors
Panasonic's thin film chip resistors have high reliability, high accuracy (up to 10ppm, 0.05%), low current noise, and excellent linearity, making it ideal for rugged applications in automotive, appliance, and industrial markets. These resistors feature a high power rating (e.g. 0.25W in 0805) and a high voltage (200V in 1206), making them one of the best resistors on the market.
Panasonic thin film resistors are available in case sizes down to 0201. They meet IEC 60115-8, JIS C 5201-8, and EIAJ RC-2133B standards and are AEC-Q200 certified.
Thick film resistors
Panasonic, a worldwide leader in Resistor Products, offers Thick Film Chip Resistors in multiple case sizes and a wide range of resistance values.
The high-power series offers an exceptionally durable and lightweight design, thanks to their high-power rating: ERJP is a surge-proof series allowing reaching 0.5W in the 0805 case size, while the high temperature series ERJH can reach up to 0.5W in 0805 at 105°C, with maximal temperatures up to 175°C. These characteristics make them suitable for various automotive applications, such as EV battery management systems and motor generators, chassis safety (ABS, EPS..), and ADAS systems (Camera, LiDAR).
Aluminum electrolytic capacitors
Panasonic manufactures Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors in Surface Mount and Leaded packages, revolutionizing circuit designs with their high performance and durability.
Polymer capacitors
Small in size, and robust in design Panasonic's polymer capacitors are designed for a wide range of technologies and can be engineered for the most demanding applications.
Thanks to their ultralow ESR values (down to 3mΩ), polymer capacitors exhibit low impedance near their resonance point, which reduces AC ripple in power circuits. Panasonic delivers stable polymer capacitors showing no capacitance drift over temperature and no DC bias.
Hybrid capacitors
Panasonic Industry's hybrid capacitors are ideal for high temperatures up to 135°C, with a lifetime of 4,000 hours and a low ESR value. They have a high dielectric strength of 25 to 80V, ripple current up to 6100mA, and a rated capacitance range of 10 - 1000µF. As a leading Hybrid capacitor technology, Panasonic offers the highest ripple current and largest capacitance in the market with anti-vibration features. With full AEC-Q200 qualification, they are suitable for demanding applications, including AC/DC converters, robotics, and automotive transmission control units.
Film capacitors
Panasonic film capacitors are more reliable and have better durability. They exhibit open-circuit failure and protect your circuit boards against fire. Also they use high quality film and case material which helps achieve a lower temperature rise upon application of high currents. The fuse function enhances the safety of the film capacitor by localizing any high voltage fault on the film (Open Circuit Fault).
PhotoMOS® relays
PhotoMOS® relays with a MOSFET output offer unlimited lifetime, reliability, and stable on-resistance, suitable for automotive and industrial applications, with automotive-qualified options also available.
Relays
After more than 40 years of experience at the forefront of relay innovation and development, Panasonic Industry today offers a portfolio of more than 2,000 electromechanical relay versions in the field of miniaturized relays - from ultra-miniature SMD signal relays to robust, compact industrial high-power type
Switches
Micro-, Toggle-, Rocker-, Detection- and Tactile switches. Panasonic offers the right solution. A flexible line-up of sealing types, lever-, terminal- and wire-versions is available.
Wireless modules
Panasonic Wireless Connectivity solutions encompass a wide range of technologies, with a focus on helping design engineers increase their product’s speed-to-market. The product portfolio covers all of today’s latest communication protocols with ready-to-use modules for Bluetooth® Low Energy and Classic.
Panasonic offers Bluetooth® Low Energy in combination with all important short range RF technologies: Wi-Fi® (2.4GHz & 5GHz), IEEE® 802.15.4 and NFC-A.
PaPIRs
Passive or pyroelectric infrared (PIR) sensors are thermal detectors and are suitable as motion sensors. They react to a change in infrared heat radiation in the environment, e.g. by a moving person (or object).
The latest Panasonic PIR generation, the EKM family, comprises two mechanically identical series: the EKMB (1µA, 2µA and 6µA; digital output) and the EKMC series (170µA; digital and analog output).
Connectors
SMT connectors for tough contact in different variations for demanding industrial and automotive applications.
