Extended 298D Series of MicroTan™ Solid Tantalum Chip Capacitors

The Key Benefits:

  • Extended to offer high capacitance-voltage ranges from 1µF-25V to 47µF-4V in the compact 0603 M-case package
    • Measures 1.60-mm x 0.85-mm 0603 with a low 0.90-mm maximum profile
  • Newly released 0805 P-case is the industry's first molded package to offer a capacitance of 220µF-4V
    • Measures 2.40 mm x 1.45 mm with a 1.20-mm maximum profile
  • Special L-shaped facedown terminations offer better contact to the solder pad than traditional facedown style terminations

The Key Applications:

  • Audio filtering and signal processing in mobile phones, digital cameras, and MP3 devices

The News:

Vishay Extends 298D MicroTan™ Series With Industry's First Solid Tantalum Chip Capacitors to Offer 220µF-4V CV Rating in Molded 0805 Case Size, With 1µF-25V to 47µF-4V CV Ratings in 0603 Case Size For Portable Electronics

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) announces the extension of its 298D series of MicroTan™ solid tantalum chip capacitors to offer industry-best capacitance-voltage ratings in two small molded package sizes.

  • Leverages the patented MAP (multi-array packaging) assembly technology
  • High capacitance-voltage ratings enable more stylish end products by requiring less printed circuit board space and reduced product thickness
  • Rectangular molded case encapsulation is ideal for high-volume PCB assembly

The Key Specifications:

  • 220µF-4V CV rating in 0805 footprint
    • 2.40 mm x 1.45 mm with a 1.20-mm maximum profile
  • 1µF-25V to 47µF-4V CV ratings in 0603 footprint
    • 1.60-mm x 0.85-mm with a 0.90-mm maximum profile

The Perspective:

Vishay has extended its 298D series of MicroTan™ solid tantalum chip capacitors to offer the industry’s first 220µF-4V capacitance-voltage rating in the molded 0805 P-case package. In the compact 0603 M-case, the series offers capacitance-voltage ratings of 1µF-25V to 47µF-4V. By combining these high ratings with two compact footprints, the 298D series requires less printed circuit board space, enabling smaller, more stylish handheld electronic devices.

Availability:

Samples and production quantities of the extended 298D series of MicroTan™ solid tantalum chip capacitors are available now, with a lead-time of eight weeks for larger orders
