Tantalum capacitors operate at up to +200°C
The new Vishay T24 Series SMD HI-TMP Wet Tantalum Capacitors with high operating temperatures to +200°C in the compact C case code is available at New Yorker Electronics.
Featuring a glass-to-tantalum hermetic seal and a long life rated to 2,000 hours, it offers a smaller size and footprint than equivalent through-hole and over-moulded high temperature devices.
The T24 series is designed to utilise board space more efficiently and deliver increased reliability for oil exploration, military and aerospace and applications where > 150°C operation is required.
Measuring 9 x 7.1 x 7.4mm, these Vishay Wet Tantalum capacitors have been optimised for timing, filtering, energy hold-up and pulse power applications, and boast increased thermal shock capability of 300 cycles.
They offer improved thermal shock capability to 300 cycles and provide a longer life of 2,000 hours at +200°C, eliminating the need to utilise larger through-hole devices in demanding environments.
The T24 series features 200°C derated voltage ratings of 45VDC and 75VDC, with capacitance values of 33µF and 10µF, respectively, and capacitance tolerance of ± 10% and ± 20% standard.
The devices operate over a temperature range of -55°C to +85°C, to +200°C with voltage derating and provide maximum ESR down to 2.5Ω at 120Hz and +85°C.
They are RoHS-compliant and halogen-free.
Samples and production quantities of the T24 series are available now, with lead times of 10 weeks.
