APPLICATIONS NOTES
a) No continuous reverse voltage permissible.
b) Transient reverse voltage surges are acceptable under
the following conditions:

D
The peak reverse voltage does not exceed 1.5 V and the
peak current times the duration of the reverse transient
does not exceed 0.05 As. In addition, the repetition
frequency of the reverse voltage surge is less than 10 Hz.
3D Models
Vishay STA represents a major breakthrough in Wet
Tantalum capacitor technology. Its unique cathode system,
also used in the ST, provides the highest capacitance per
unit volume available. The STA combines the inherent
reliability of wet tantalum with the capacitance stability of
solid tantalum, and there are no circuit impedance
restrictions. The range is exceptionally well suited for low
voltage filtering and energy storage applications.
c) The peak of the applied AC ripple and the applied DC
voltage must not exceed the DC voltage rating of the
capacitor.
d) Ripple current ratings by part number at 85 °C and
40 kHz are included in the table. Ripple current correction
factors for other temperatures and frequencies are given
on the next page.
