Solid-Electrolyte TANTALEX™ Capacitors,
Axial-Leaded, Molded Case
FEATURES
• Axial through-hole terminations: tin / lead
(SnPb), 100 % tin (RoHS-compliant)
• Miniature axial-lead capacitors available in
5 sizes
• Precision molded in gold colored, flame
retardant, thermosetting epoxy resin
• Laser marked for improved legibility and
tapered end of case provides easy identification of
positive terminal
• Standard orders are lead taped and reeled; orders under
500 are taped only
• Material categorization: for definitions of compliance
please see www.vishay.com/doc?99912
Note
*
This datasheet provides information about parts that are
RoHS-compliant and / or parts that are non-RoHS-compliant. For
example, parts with lead (Pb) terminations are not RoHS-compliant.
Please see the information / tables in this datasheet for details.
APPLICATIONS
Designed for high performance automotive, industrial and
commercial electronic equipment.
PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS
Operating Temperature: -55 °C to +85 °C
(to +125 °C with voltage derating)
Capacitance Tolerance: at 120 Hz, +25 °C.
± 20 %, ± 10 % standard ± 5 % available as special
Capacitance Range: 0.10 μF to 330 μF.
Voltage Rating: 2 VDC to 50 VDC.
Dissipation Factor: at 120 Hz, +25 °C. Dissipation factor,
as determined from the expression 2fRC, shall not exceed
the values listed in the Standard Ratings table.
DC Leakage Current (DCL Max.):
at +25 °C: leakage current shall not exceed the values listed
in the Standard Ratings table.
at +85 °C: leakage current shall not exceed 10 times the
values listed in the Standard Ratings table.
at +125 °C: leakage shall not exceed 15 times the values
listed in the Standard Ratings table.
Life Test: capacitors shall withstand rated DC voltage
applied at +85 °C for 2000 h and for 1000 h applied
at + 25 °C derated voltage.
Following the life test:
1. DCL shall not exceed 125 % of the initial requirements.
2. Dissipation Factor shall meet the initial requirement.
3. Change in capacitance shall not exceed ± 10 %.
