KEMET Organic Capacitor (KO-CAP ) High Reliability T540 COTS Polymer Electrolytic for High Reliability Applications, 2.5 63 VDC Overview The KEMET Organic Capacitor (KO-CAP) is a solid electrolytic surge current screening options. The recommended application capacitor with a conductive polymer cathode capable of derating for these capacitors is 10 20%, rendering them suitable delivering very low ESR and improved capacitance retention at for application voltages from 2.25 to 50 VDC. high frequencies. KO-CAP combines the low ESR of multilayer ceramic, the high capacitance of aluminum electrolytic and the The T5 40 Ser ies is the rfi st polymer electroly tic c apacitor available volumetr ic ef cfi iency of t ant alum into a single sur fac e mount with failure rate options as denfi ed by K EM ET s KO - CA P Reliabilit y package. Unlike liquid electrolyte-based capacitors, KO-CAP has Assessment method. This method utilizes accelerated conditions a very long operational life and high ripple current capabilities. (voltage and temperature) applied to board-mounted samples to assess long term device reliability. The failure rates available are B The T540 COTS Polymer Electrolytic offers the same (0.1% per 1,000 hours), C (0.01% per 1,000 hours) and D (0.001% performance advantages as other KO-CAP series with screening per 1,000 hours). The KO-CAP Reliability Assessment method was options associated with high reliability Hi-Re) applications. developed as a result of over ten years of research and is described These Commerical-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) grade components are in numerous papers available on www.kemet.com. built with a tin - lead (SnPb) ter mination nfi ish and of fer several Benefits Approved for DLA Drawing 04051 B, C and D failure rates available High frequency capacitance retention Surge current testing options Volumetrically ef cfi ient Low ESR EIA standard case sizes 100% accelerated steady state aging KEMET s KO-CAP Reliability Assessment method Applications Typical applications include decoupling and lfi tering in defense and aerospace applications that require low ESR or a benign failure mode. When extreme temperatures and humidity are taken into account, polymer capacitors offer a number of advantages over other types of capacitors. KEMET continues to investigate the behavior of polymer capacitors in extreme conditions.
