No. P-TCB-001 DATE 2006-12 PRODUCTS DATA SHEET Face-down terminal structure Tantalum Solid Electrolytic Capacitors with Conductive Polymer RoHS COMPLIANT LEAD FREE Type TCB OUTLINE Type TCB is a tantalum solid electrolytic capacitor with face-down terminal which uses conductive polymer as cathode layer. Their equivalent series resistance (ESR) is extremely lowered with the characteristics of the polymer having high electric conductivity. This ensures higher permissible ripple current and excellent noise absorption performance on high-frequency circuits. APPLICATION Mobile phones, digital cameras, high-performance portable equipments, personal computers, digital TV sets, DC/DC converters, regulators and peripherals FEATURES 1. Low ESR and Low impedance Using a conductive polymer as cathode layer makes possible of low ESR and impedance. Type TCB makes high permissible ripple current and is suitable for noise bypass application. 2. Stable ESR over temperature ESR is extremely stable from low temperature through high temperature. 3. Ultra Compact and Large capacitance The face-down terminal structure makes it possible to design the land almost in the same size as the terminals. As the result, the components can be downsized, and the mounting area can be reduced to 1/2 to 1/3 compared to the conventional structures. 4. Benign Failure Mode Type TCB offers very safe characteristics which makes ignition and smoking harder by taking advantages of characteristics of conductive polymer if the capacitor be short-circuited. 5. Lead Free and RoHS Compliant.

Operating voltage 6. Soldering The capacitors shall be operated at the rated voltage or lower. Over rated voltage applied even for a short time may cause short failure. When designing the circuit, the equipment's required reliability must be considered and appropriate voltage derating must be performed. * Recommended operating voltage : 80% or less of the rated voltage * When the operating temperature exceeds 85C, derate the applied voltage. The voltage derating formula is shown below. 6.1 Preheating To obtain optimal reliability, lowering the heat shock during the soldering process is favorable. Capacitors should be pre-heated at 130-160C for approximately 60 seconds. 6.2 Soldering The body of the capacitor should not exceed 240C during soldering. (1) Reflow Soldering Reflow soldering is a process in which the capacitors are mounted on a printed circuit board with solder paste. Two methods of Reflow Soldering: Direct and Atmospheric Heat. * Direct Heat (Hot plate) * Atmospheric Heat a) Near and Far IR Ray b) Convection Oven Vapor Phase Soldering and Flow Soldering are not recommended. (2) Soldering Iron Soldering with a soldering iron cannot be recommended due to the lack of consistency in maintaining temperatures and process times. If this method should be necessary, the iron should never touch the capacitor's terminals, and the temperature of the soldering iron should never exceed 350C. The application of the iron should not exceed 3 seconds and 30 watt. (3) Please consult us for other methods. Derated voltage The derated voltage VT, at a temperature T, between 85 to 105C is obtained by the following formula. Voltage (V) Vr Vd VT=Vr - Vr - Vd (T-85) 20 Vr : Rated voltage, Vd : Derated voltage at 105C. 0 -55 0 20 85 105 Temperature (C) Vr Rated voltage (VDC) 2.5 4 6.3 10 Vd Derated voltage (VDC) 2.0 3.2 5.0 8.0 2. Application that contain AC Voltage 7. Solvent cleaning Special attention to the following 3 items. (1) The sum of the DC bias voltage and the positive peak value of the AC voltage should not exceed the rated voltage. (2) Reverse voltage should not exceed the allowable values of the negative peak AC voltage. (3) Ripple voltage should not exceed the allowable values. Cleaning by organic solvent may damage capacitor's appearance and performance. However, our capacitors are not effected even when soaked at 20-30C 2-propanol for 5 minutes. When introducing new cleaning methods or changing the cleaning term, please consult us. 3. Reverse voltage Special attention to the polar character. Reverse Voltage should not be applied. 4. Permissible ripple current The permissible ripple current and voltage at about 100 kHz or higher can be determined by the following formula from the permissible power loss (Pmax value) shown in Table 1 and the specified ESR value. However, when the expected operating temperature is higher than room temperature, determine the permissible values multiplying the Pmax value by the specified multiplier (Table 2). For the permissible values at different frequencies, consult our Sales Department. 2 E ESR P = I ESR or P = Z2 2 Ultrasonic cleaning under severe condition may break terminals. Also, from an electrical characteristics aspect, it is unfavorable. Therefore, please do not use ultrasonic cleaning if possible. If the Ultrasonic cleaning process will be used, please note the following. (1) The solvent should not be boiled. (Lower the ultrasonic wave output or use solvent with the high boiling point.) (2) The recommended wattage is less than 0.5 watts per cm2. (3) The cleaning time should be kept to a minimum. Also, samples must be swang in the solvent. Please consult us. 9. Storage Capacitors should be tightly sealed in moisture prevention bag and stored with supplied reel. 10.

Ultrasonic cleaning Pmax (W) 0.042 The capacitors may cause nonconformity if they are used on the following circuits. (1) High-impedance voltage holding circuits (2) Coupling circuits (3) Time constant circuits (4) Circuits significantly affected by leakage current If a short circuit occurs, the capacitors may generate heat or smoke depending on the short-circuit current. When designing a circuit, take the instructions stated herein into consideration, and take as much redundant measures as possible. These application notes are prepared based on the technical report RCR-2368B "Guideline of notabilia for fixed tantalum electrolytic capacitors with solid electrolyte for use in electronic equipment" issued by Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association. For the details of the instructions (explanation, reasons and concrete examples), please refer to this guideline, or consult our Sales Department. Note: Above values are measured at 0.8t glass epoxy board mounting in free air and may be changed depending on the kind of board, packing density, and air convection condition. Please consult us if calculated power loss value is different from above list of P max value.
