GUIDE TO APPLICATIONS FOR TANTALUM CHIP CAPACITORS
The failure of the solid tantalum capacitor is mostly classified into a short-circuiting mode and a large leakage
current mode. Refer to the following for reliable circuit design.
1. Field failure rate
SV/H Series tantalum chip capacitors are typically applied to decoupling, blocking, by-passing and filtering.
The SV/H Series has a very low failure rate in the field. For example, the maximum field failure rate of an SV/H
Series capacitor with a DC working voltage of 16 V is 0.0002 %/1000 hour (2 Fit) at an applied voltage of 5 V, operating
temperature of 25°C and series resistance of 3 Ω.
The maximum failure rate in the field is estimated by following expression:
 V 
λ = λ0 

 V0 

Examples:
Given V/V0 = 0.4 and T = 45°C, read
F = 4 × 10–3.
Hence, λ = 0.002%/1000 hour (20 Fit).
Given V/V0 = 0.3 and T = 25°C, read
F = 4 × 10–4.
Hence, λ = 0.0002%/1000 hour (2 Fit).

2. Series resistance
As shown in Figure 1, reliability is increased by inserting a series resistance of at least 3 Ω/V into circuits where
current flow is momentary (switching circuits, charge/discharge circuits, etc.).
If the capacitor is in a low-impedance circuit, the voltage applied to the capacitor should be less than 1/2 to 1/3
of the rated DC working voltage.

Figure 2 is based on an ambient temperature of 25°C. For higher temperature, permissible ripple voltage shall
be derated as follows.
Permissible voltage @ 50°C = 0.7 × permissible voltage @25°C
Permissible voltage @ 85°C = 0.5 × permissible voltage @25°C
Permissible voltage @ 125°C = 0.3 × permissible voltage @25°C

4. Reverse voltage
Because the capacitors are polarized, reverse voltage should not be applied.
If reverse voltage cannot be avoided because of circuit design, the voltage application should be for a very short
time and should not exceed the following.
10% MAX. of rated DC working voltage @25°C
5% MAX. of rated DC working voltage @85°C
1% MAX. of rated DC working voltage @125°C
5. Mounting
(1) Direct soldering
Keep in mind the following points when soldering the capacitor by means of jet soldering or dip soldering:
(a) Temporarily fixing resin
Because the SV/H series solid tantalum capacitors are larger in size and subject to more force than the
chip multilayer ceramic capacitors or chip resistors, more resin is required to temporarily secure the solid
tantalum capacitors. However, if too much resin is used, the resin adhering to the patterns on a printed
circuit board may adversely affect the solderability.

The above dimensions are for reference only. If the capacitor is to be mounted by this method, and if the
pattern is too small, the solderability may be degraded.
(c) Temperature and time
Keep the peak temperature and time to within the following values:
Solder temperature ............ 260°C max.
Time ................................. 10 seconds max.
Whenever possible, perform preheating (at 150°C max.) for smooth temperature profile. To maintain the
reliability, mount the capacitor at a low temperature and in a short time whenever possible.
(d) Component layout
If many types of chip components are mounted on a printed circuit board which is to be soldered by means
of jet soldering, solderability may not be uniform over the entire board depending on the layout and density
of the components on the board (also take into consideration generation of flux gas).

The above dimensions are for reference only. Note that if the pattern is too big, the component may not
be mounted in place.
(b) Temperature and time
Keep the peak temperature and time to within the following values:
Solder temperature .............. 260°C max.
Time: 10 seconds max.
Whenever possible, perform preheating (at 150°C max.) for smooth temperature profile. To maintain the
reliability, mount the capacitor at a low temperature and in a short time whenever possible. The peak
temperature and time shown above are applicable when the capacitor is to be soldered in a soldering over
or with a hot plate. When the capacitor is soldered by means of infrared reflow soldering, the internal
temperature of the capacitor may rise beyond the surface temperature.
(3) Using soldering iron
When soldering the capacitor with a soldering iron, controlling the temperature at the tip of the soldering iron
is very difficult. However, it is recommended that the following temperature and time be observed to maintain
the reliability of the capacitor:
Iron temperature ......... 300°C max.
Time ........................... 3 seconds max.
Iron power .................. 30 W max.

6. Cleaning
Generally, several organic solvents are used for flux cleaning of an electronic component after soldering. Many
cleaning methods, such as immersion cleaning, rinse cleaning, brush cleaning, shower cleaning, vapor cleaning, and
ultrasonic cleaning, are available, and one of these cleaning methods may be used alone or two or more may be used
in combination. The temperature of the organic solvent may vary from room temperature to several 10°C, depending
on the desired effect. If cleaning is carried out with emphasis placed only on cleaning effect, however, the marking
on the electronic component cleaned may be erased, the appearance of the component may be damaged, and in the
worst case, the component may be functionally damaged. It is therefore recommended that the R series solid tantalum
capacitor be cleaned under the following conditions:
[Recommended conditions of flux cleaning]
(1) Cleaning solvent ......... Chlorosen, isopropyl alcohol
(2) Cleaning method ......... Shower cleaning, rinse cleaning, vapor cleaning
(3) Cleaning time .............. 5 minutes max.
*Ultrasonic cleaning
This cleaning method is extremely effective for eliminating dust that has been generated as a result of mechanical
processes, but may pose a problem depending on the condition. As a result of an experiment conducted by NEC,
it was confirmed that the external terminals of the capacitor were cut when it was cleaned with some ultrasonic cleaning
machines. The cause of this phenomenon is considered metal fatigue of the capacitor terminals that occurred due
to ultrasonic cleaning. To prevent the terminal from being cut, decreasing the output power of the ultrasonic cleaning
machine or shortening the cleaning time may be a possible solution. However, it is difficult to specify the safe cleaning
conditions because there are many factors involved such as the conversion efficiency of the ultrasonic oscillator,
transfer efficiency of the cleaning bath, difference in cleaning effect depending on the location in the cleaning bath,
the size and quantity of the printed circuit boards to be cleaned, and the securing states of the components on the
boards. It is therefore recommended that ultrasonic cleaning be avoided as much as possible.
If ultrasonic cleaning is essential, make sure through experiments that no abnormality occur as a result of the
cleaning. For further information, consult NEC.

7. Others
(1) Do not apply excessive vibration and shock to the capacitor.
(2) The solderability of the capacitor may be degraded by humidity. Store the capacitor at (–5 to +40°C) room
temperature and (40 to 60% RH) humidity.
(3) Exercise care that no external force is applied to the tape packaged products (if the packaging material is
deformed, the capacitor may not be automatically mounted by a chip mounted).

While NEC Corporation has been making continuous effort to enhance the reliability of its
e l e c t r o n i c components, the possibility of defects cannot be eliminated entirely. To minimize risks
of damage or injury to persons or property arising from a defect in an NEC electronic component,
customers must incorporate sufficient safety measures in its design, such as redundancy, firecontainment, and anti-failure features. NEC devices are classified into the following three quality
grades:
"Standard," "Special," and "Specific". The Specific quality grade applies only to devices
developed based on a customer designated "quality assurance program" for a specific
a p p l i c a t i o n . T h e r e c o m m e n d e d applications of a device depend on its quality grade, as indicated
below. Customers must check the quality grade of each device before using it in a particular
application.
Standard: Computers, office equipment, communications equipment, test and measurement
equipment, audio and visual equipment, home electronic appliances, machine tools,
personal electronic equipment and industrial robots
Special:
Transportation equipment (automobiles, trains, ships, etc.), traffic control systems,
anti-disaster systems, anti-crime systems, safety equipment and medical
e q u i p m e n t ( n o t specifically designed for life support)
Specific: Aircrafts, aerospace equipment, submersible repeaters, nuclear reactor control
systems, life support systems or medical equipment for life support, etc.
The quality grade of NEC devices is "Standard" unless otherwise specified in NEC's Data Sheets
or Data Books. If customers intend to use NEC devices for applications other than those
specified for Standard quality grade, they should contact an NEC sales representative in
advance.
(Note)
(1) "NEC" as used in this statement means NEC Corporation and also includes its majorityowned subsidiaries.
(2) "NEC electronic component products" means any electronic component product developed
or manufactured by or for NEC (as defined above).
