Tantalum Through-Hole Capacitors Hermetically Sealed T110 Series and T212 – KEMET Electronics

Category: Capacitors, Electronics, Kemet Electronics Corporation

Overview

The KEMET T110 Series Tantalum Through-Hole Capacitors are designed for high humidity environments and are part of the product lineup ensuring reliable performance in miniaturized circuitry. These capacitors are hermetically sealed and are ideal for various applications, including coupling, bypass, filtering, and RC timing circuits. The T110 Series offers excellent stability and exceptional performance in terms of low DC leakage current, dissipation factor, and ESR/impedance over an extensive temperature and frequency range.

Key Benefits

The capacitors are available with capacitance values ranging from 0.0047 pF to 330 pF and voltage ratings from 6 VDC to 125 VDC. They are provided in tolerances of +20%, +10%, and +5%. These components can operate within a temperature range from -55°C to +125°C, and come in several case sizes labeled as A, B, C, D. KEMET ensures compliance with industry standards by providing taped and reeled packaging per EIA Specification RS-296 and marking per MIL-STD-1285. The series is qualified to MIL-PRF-39003, and offers various failure rate options classified as Graded B, C, D, and Exponential M, P, R, and S, catering specifically to military applications.

Applications

Due to their rugged construction and hermetic seal, these capacitors are highly suited for sophisticated electronic circuitries that require reliable and stable components, especially where moisture resistance is a priority.

Ordering Information

Ordering codes for T110 and T212 capacitor series utilize a system that specifies the series, case size, capacitance code, voltage rating, failure rate, and termination finish. This ensures product traceability and simplification in procurement processes. For example, the specified “T110 105 K 050 7200” represents a hermetically sealed tantalum capacitor, of 105 pF capacitance with a tolerance of +10%, rated at 50 VDC, and provided in a tape & reel package. For military specifications, orders should include the exact military specification number, inclusive of the dash number and surge option indicated by the letters A, B, or C.

KEMET’s product line also includes higher CV (capacitance-voltage) values under the T410 Series, indicating that there are options available for applications requiring even more robust capacitor specifications. The datasheet also includes interactive content for a more elaborate product representation, benefiting users in making well-informed decisions.
