Tantalum Through-Hole Capacitors – KEMET T110 Series and T212 CSR13 Style

Category: Capacitors, Electronics, Kemet Electronics Corporation

Overview and Benefits

The KEMET T110 Series tantalum capacitors are designed for miniaturized circuitry and are well-suited for high humidity environments. These hermetically sealed axial capacitors offer excellent stability and have extremely low DC leakage current, dissipation factor, and equivalent series resistance (ESR) over a wide temperature and frequency range. The capacitors come in standard EIA capacitance values ranging from 0.0047 pF to 330 pF, with tolerances of +20%, +10%, and +5%, and working voltages from 6 VDC to 125 VDC.

Marked to MIL-STD-1285 standards and qualified to MIL-PRF-39003, these components are available with four different failure rate options (graded B, C, D, and exponential M, P, R, and S) for military products only. Furthermore, they can operate in temperatures ranging from -55°C to +125°C and are offered in various case sizes (A, B, C, D).

Applications

KEMET’s T110 Series are ideal for applications requiring reliability in coupling, bypass, filtering, and RC timing circuits. These axial capacitors are geared towards the miniaturization of electronic devices and systems.

Ordering Information

For the T110 Series, important ordering parameters include the case size, capacitance value, tolerance, rated voltage, and termination finish. They are available taped and reeled per EIA Specification RS-296 or in bulk, and options include military termination with either 100% tin or standard Sn/Pb finish.

The T212 (CSR13 Style) series capacitors offer similar ordering parameters, with the addition of military-grade failure rates and surge current options – “A”, “B”, or “C”. It is critical to specify the military specification number, dash number, and surge option when placing orders.

When ordering these components, the capacitance code, rated voltage, and failure rate options should be indicated, ensuring compatibility with the intended application’s specifications. This information can be found in the detailed MIL-PRF-39003 specification sheets provided by KEMET.
