New Yorker Electronics has released the new Vishay T24 series SMD HI-TMP wet tantalum capacitors with high operating temperatures to 200° C in the compact C case code. 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-molded high temperature devices. The T24 series is designed to utilize board space more efficiently and deliver increased reliability for oil exploration, military and aerospace radar applications.
Measuring 9 mm x 7.1 mm x 7.4 mm, the Vishay wet tantalum capacitors have been optimized for timing, filtering, energy hold-up and pulse power applications. 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 utilize larger through-hole devices in demanding environments.
The T24 series features 200° C derated voltage ratings of 45 V DC and 75 V DC, with capacitance values of 33 µF and 10 µF, 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 equivalent series resistance down to 2.5 Ω at 120 Hz and 85° C. The capacitors are RoHS-compliant and halogen-free.
