Abstract
A multiple capacitive function wound capacitor. The capacitor includes a winding having a pair of ends and includes first, second and third insulative layers with each of the layers extending substantially from one end of the winding to the other end of the winding. The capacitor also includes a first electrode disposed between the first and second insulative layers and a second electrode located between the second and third layers. A third electrode is positioned on the side of the third layer away from the second electrode. One of the electrodes extends to one end of the winding and short of the other end while another of the electrodes terminates short of the one end but extends to the other end. The remaining electrode terminates short of both ends of the winding. A conductive tab electrically connects this last-mentioned electrode with a tab extending beyond a winding end and being insulated at the location where it passes that winding end. A conductor covers each of the winding ends so that contact with two of the electrodes is through respective ends of the winding while electrical contact with the remaining electrode is through the conductive tab. A method of winding a multiple capacitive function capacitor is also disclosed.
