Polymer tantalum chip capacitors provide reliable performance in harsh conditions

Update: November 25, 2021

Vishay Intertechnology has launched a new series of vPolyTan surface-mount polymer tantalum moulded chip Capacitors to produce reliable performance in high temperature and high humidity operating conditions.

Vishay Polytech T50 series capacitors provide a robust design with enhanced hermeticity for improved protection in harsh environments. The devices offer a high-temperature operation to +125C and withstand temperature humidity bias testing of 85C and 85% relative humidity for 500 hours. These specifications make the capacitors ideal for decoupling, smoothing, and filtering in the harsh environments of industrial, aerospace, defence, and edge computing applications.

Provided in the D case (EIA 7343-30) size, the series offers ultra-low ESR down to 25mOhm and ripple current to 3A. The devices provide a wide capacitance range from 10µF to 330µF overvoltage ratings from 2.5V to 35V and a capacitance tolerance of ±20%. The capacitors are RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and Vishay Green.
