MIL-C-62/1D
Application data:
All capacitors shall withstand an rms ripple
current at 120 Hz and 85C as determined
from the formula:
Ir k C
Where:
Ir = rms ripple current in milliamps.
C = nominal capacitance in microfarads.
k = 20 for units rated at 5 to 250 volts dc inclusive.
= 30 for units rated at 300 to 450 volts dc inclusive.
Supersession data: See table II.
