T498

KEMET's T498 family of solid tantalum chip capacitors is designed and manufactured with the demanding requirements of surface mount technology in mind.

T498 extend the advantages of solid tantalum technology to today's surface mount circuit applications. Complementing multilayer ceramic chip convenience with capacitance ratings through 1500 F, tantalum chip capacitors permit circuitdesigners to take full advantage of the benefits of surface mount technology.

T498 SERIES - High Temperature (150° C)
The T498 Series is a high temperature version of KEMET's solid tantalum chip family that offers optimal performance in applications with operating temperatures f up to 150° C. Advancements in materials and testing have allowed for the introduction of this series which delivers a reliability level of 0.5% per 1000 hours at rated voltage at rated temperature. This series is available in five standard EIA case sizes with RoHSCompliant/ 100% matte tin finish lead terminations as standard. Other termination options include 90Sn/10Pb finishes and gold for conductive adhesive attachment processes. Capacitance values range from .47F to 220F, in voltage ratings from 4 to 50 volts.

T530 SERIES - Conductive Polymer High Capacitance - Ultra Low ESR
KEMET is offering a multiple anode tantalum chip capacitor with a polymer material replacing the MnO2 offering non-ignition, self-healing, 125 performance capability with higher conductivity material that lowers the ESR. Packaged as multiple anodes to reduce the depth that the signal must penetrate, this parallel arrangement reduces the ESR further still to achieve the highest capacitance and lowest ESR of any other type of SMT capacitor with typical ESR values as low as 5 milliohms. With the reduced ESR, the enhanced capacitance retention in higher frequencies results in the lowest total capacitance solution and provides for the most economical solution in high power applications.
