Vishay - Space-saving solid tantalum capacitors target handheld electronics

Vishay has introduced a new series of vPolyTan solid tantalum surface mount chip capacitors that provide higher volume efficiency for handheld consumer electronics. The T58 series combines polymer tantalum technology with a proprietary high-efficiency MicroTan → package to achieve the industry's best capacitor voltage ratings in six molded case codes, including the compact M0 (1608-10) case. 47µF-6.3V and 220µF-10V and 330µF-6.3V in BB (3528-20). Utilizing the patented MAP (Multi-Array Packaging) assembly technology, capacitors released today have a 10% improvement in space utilization compared to similar devices, saving PCB space, and enabling the design of smaller, thinner end products, including Smartphones, tablets and ultra-thin products. Thin laptops, as well as wireless network cards, network equipment, and audio amplifiers and preamps. Among these devices, the T58 series capacitors are designed for decoupling, smoothing, filtering, and energy storage applications. These devices provide capacitors from 10µF to 330µF with tolerances in the rated voltage range of MM (1608-09), M0 (1608-10), W9 (2012-09), A0 (3216) from 4V to 25V It is ± 20%. -18), AA (3216-18), B0 (3528-10) and BB (3528-20) case codes. These capacitors have low impedance, low ESR from 50mohm to 500mohm at + 25C and 100kHz, ripple current from 0.224A to 1.3A at 100kHz, and operate over a temperature range of -55C to + 105C with voltage derating Above + 85C. The T58 series rectangular molded case package is very suitable for high-volume PCB assembly, and its special lead-free L-shaped face-down terminal provides better contact with the pad than the traditional face-down terminal. The device is RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and Vishay Green's. It has a moisture sensitivity (MSL) of 3 and is available in tape and reel according to the EIA-481 standard. The company said that samples and production quantities of the T58 series capacitors are now available.
