ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Operating temperature range: - 55 °C to + 125 °C
APPLICATIONS
Capacitance: Measured at 120 Hz and 25 °C with a
maximum of 2.2 VDC bias and 1.0 Vrms signal.
• Hearing aids
• Portable communications
• Space/avionics
Capacitance Tolerance: Standard tolerance is 20 % for
ratings 0.1 µF and above, and + 40, - 20 % for ratings below
0.1 µF. Special tolerances are also available.
• Laptop computers
Dissipation Factor: When measured simultaneously with
capacitance, DF shall not exceed the value shown in
theratings tables.
MECHANICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Solder coated nickel leads (type N32 per MIL-STD-1276) are
standard on all case sizes.
DC Leakage Current (DCL Max):
When measured with DC voltage applied through a 1000 Ω
resistor for 5 minutes, DC leakage (µA) shall not exceed:
Leads are weldable and/or solderable.
At 25 °C: Leakage current shall not exceed the values listed
in the Standard Ratings Tables
Special leads are available on request (e.g. bare nickel, gold
plated nickel or ribbon leads).
At 85 °C: Leakage current shall not exceed 10 times the
values listed in the Standard Ratings Tables
Lead length is 1 1/2” [38.1 mm] minimum on nonpolar parts.
At 125 °C and 66 % of Rated Voltage: Leakage current
shall not exceed 15 times the values listed in the Standard
Ratings Tables.
On polar parts the negative lead is 1-1/4” [31.8 mm] minimum
and the positive lead is 1-1/2” [38.1 mm] minimum.
Operating Voltage: Full working voltage up to 85 °C. From
85 °C to 125 °C working voltage derates linearly to 66 % of
the 85 °C working voltage.
