Capacitors cut resistance and inductance
Surface mount conductive polymer capacitors combine ultralow equivalent series resistance with the lowest inductance available on the market for products of this type.
Kemet has launched a new series of face down termination conductive polymer capacitors. The new surface mount devices combine ultralow equivalent series resistance (ESR) with the lowest inductance (ESL) available on the market for products of this type. Initial offerings of the T528 series, which specifies an inductance of less than 0.7nH at 20MHz, are targeted at high-speed server and microprocessor decoupling applications that are driving demand for low inductance parts.
Featuring terminations on the underside of the component as opposed to standard wrap-around terminations, the T528 series is initially being offered with a 330uF capacitance and rated voltage of 2.5V.
A choice of 9 or 12mohm ESR parts is available.
Both are housed in low profile Z-size cases measuring 7.3 x 4.3mm and with a height of just 1.7mm.
The new polymer capacitors feature a nonignition failure mode and a self-healing mechanism.
They are RoHS compliant and suitable for use over a temperature range of -55 to +105C.
