KEMET Tantalum Capacitor T110 Series Datasheet

Category: Capacitors, Electronics, Kemet Electronics Corporation

General Overview

The datasheet provides information about the KEMET Tantalum Capacitor, specifically the T110 series. Identified by the part number T11OB1O6KO1OAT, this commercial-grade component features a manganese dioxide (MnO₂) dielectric and is designed for use in a range of electronic applications. The capacitor is characterized by a capacitance of 10 microfarads (µF) with a tolerance of 10%, and a voltage rating of 10 VDC at 85°C. The capacitor’s operating temperature range is from -55°C to +125°C with a rated temperature of 85°C.

Design and Features

The T110 is a hermetically sealed, solid tantalum capacitor with an axial lead style, ensuring reliability and durability for military and other demanding applications, though it is specified here as a non-ER (established reliability) military component. The T110 series complies with RoHS standards and features tin-lead termination with wire leads. It is important to note that the dimensions of the capacitor include the insulation sleeve, which factors into the component’s physical sizing when integrated into electronic systems.

Electrical Specifications

The T110 capacitor’s electrical characteristics include a surge voltage of 9 VDC at 125°C and a reverse voltage of 0.1 VDC at the same temperature. With a resistance of 5 ohms at 100 kHz, the component exhibits minimal impedance in the relevant frequency range. Additionally, the capacitor has a low leakage current of just 1 µA at 25°C, signaling high efficiency and reduced power loss during operation.

Dimensions and Packaging

The T110 series capacitors have defined dimensions with specific tolerances. The overall size is delineated by a length of 15.49mm, a width of 12.04mm +/-0.79mm, and a height of 4.7mm +/-0.25mm, with axial lead and insulation attributes given precise measurements. For practicality in handling and shipping, the capacitors are packaged in bulk boxes, with each box containing a quantity of 75 units.
