RE: vishay vs wima dc links

I was just staring at that data sheet since I need a coupla �f of storage at 6Kv and the DC Links seem to be the most economical way to go.

It is important to note that if you take advantage of the 105� rating you need to derate the DC value by 30%.

On the flip side, if you operate on the other side of the 85� DC rating that is listed and keep the temp below 70� the DC rating goes up 20%.
