Tantalum Stack Polymer Surface Mount Capacitors
Tantalum Stack Polymer (TSP) Series
Overview
The KEMET Tantalum Stack Polymer (TSP) Series is designed
to provide the highest capacitance/voltage ratings in surface
mountꢀconfiguration.ꢀKEMET'sꢀT540ꢀPolymerꢀCOTSꢀcapacitorsꢀ
are utilized in stacks of 2,3,4 and 6 components to achieve a
broad range of capacitance and voltage ratings. The T540 COTS
series offers component level surge current testing options and
standard and low ESR options. As with other KEMET Polymer
product, this series may be operated at steady state voltages
upꢀtoꢀ90%ꢀofꢀratedꢀvoltageꢀforꢀpartꢀtypesꢀwithꢀratedꢀvoltagesꢀofꢀ≤ꢀ
10 volts and up to 80% of rated voltage for part types > 10 volts.
StackingꢀconfigurationsꢀofferꢀthisꢀPolymerꢀCOTSꢀproductꢀwithꢀ
custom capacitance/voltage solutions and very low ESR options.
Note: Custom stacking solutions are available with other KEMET Tantalum
Surface Mount Series. Please contact KEMET Product Management for
availability.
