Wet tantalum capacitors optimized for pulse power and energy hold-up applications

Available now from TTI Europe and built on Vishay’s proven SuperTan technology, the EP1 features an ultra high capacitance range from 2,000µF to 30,000µF and voltage ratings from 25VDC to 125VDC in the A case code. The devices’s excellent values include a capacitance of 13,000µF at 50V in the A case size, which is 18% greater than the closest competing device. The capacitor features a standard capacitance tolerance of 20%, with 10% tolerance available. Optimized for pulse power and energy hold-up applications in laser guidance, radar, and avionics systems, the device is housed in an all-tantalum, hermetically sealed case for increased reliability. The device operates over a temperature range of -55C to +85C, to +125C with voltage derating, and provides maximum ESR down to 0.030ohm at 1kHz and +25C. The capacitor is available with tin/lead (Sn/Pb) and RoHS-compliant 100 % tin terminations.
