High Reliability Tantalum

With the commercial power supply market increasingly aware of the need to minimize failure rates, as more of these products are being designed into high-end systems, demand has risen for different levels of enhanced-reliability, low ESR capacitors. In response, AVX has introduced a range of products within its TRJ professional series tantalum chip which can deliver significantly lower ESR while achieving reliability levels (0.5%/1000hours) twice that of standard tantalum devices. The capacitors are available in EIA standard A, B, C, D and E case sizes in voltages ranging from 6.3 to 50V and capacitance values from 0.1 to 470µF
