Application Notes
Rated Voltage
This is the maximum voltage that the capacitor has been
designed to withstand continuously at rated temperature.
Solid polymer aluminum capacitors are quite rugged
and may be operated continuously at rated voltage.
Voltage derating does not significantly increase the life
expectancy of the capacitor. At voltage levels equal to or
less than rated voltage,the capacitor will not short circuit
(even at end of life). In fact it can self heal. A polymer
aluminum capacitor can be operated over a lifetime at full
rated voltage without worry of short circuiting. However,
if subjected to sufficient over voltage or reverse voltage,
a SPA capacitor can fail short circuit.
Ripple Current/Ripple Voltage
AC voltage as part of the capacitorís DC bias voltage
will cause current to flow through the capacitor.
This ripple current flows through the capacitor's equivalent
series resistance generating heat. The heat increases the
capacitor ís internal temperature. Exceeding the specific
maximum ripple current will overheat the capacitor. The
maximum ripple current ratings are given in the ratings
tables. Peaks of the AC ripple voltage should not exceed
the rated voltage or cause voltage reversal temperature.
Exceeding the specified maximum ripple current will
overheat and damage the capacitor. The maximum ripple
current ratings are given in the ratings tables.
Shelf Life
When stored at room temperature, in low humidity, and
out of direct sunlight, SPA capacitors have a storage
life of 5 to 10 years. Storage at high humidity over long
periods of time can cause the DC leakage current to
increase. However, the application of rated voltage will
reduce the DC leakage current to normal limits.
Reverse Voltage
SPA capacitors are polarized and are not intended to be
used with reversed voltage. They can withstand reverse
voltage pulses or transients up to 20% of the rated
voltage, and they are capable of operating with up to
10% of the rated voltage when reverse voltage is applied
continuously.

Reclamation
The resin case of a capacitor can be damaged by the heat
stress of soldering if it has absorbed excessive moisture.
Capacitors suspected of having been exposed to high
humidity can be reclaimed by placing them in an oven
at 50 ºC for 100 hours.
Heat Stress while Soldering
DC leakage current can increase after soldering, but
it will return to the initial level after applying voltage.
When using a soldering iron to mount the capacitor, the
iron should have a maximum temperature of 350ºC and
soldering should not exceed 10 seconds.
Reflow Soldering
The following graph gives the maximum recommended
capacitor surface temperature during reflow soldering.

following cleaning solvents by dipping or ultrasonic

Up to 50 Years Life
SPA SMT capacitors are polarized, aluminum capacitors
which use a highly conductive solid polymer as the
electrolyte. They have reliability advantages over both
aluminum and solid tantalum electrolytic capacitors.
Unlike aluminum capacitors,there is no liquid electrolyte
that can evaporate and cause a failure. Unlike solid
tantalum which can fail short and burn, SPA capacitors
gradually become open circuits after 25 to 50 years
operation.
Life expectancy curves show 200,000 hours expected life
at full rated voltage and normal ambient conditions.
Ultra Low E.S.R. and High Rippled Current Capability
The equivalent series resistance (e.s.r.) of solid polymer
aluminum capacitors is much lower than the e.s.r. of solid
tantalum capacitors. This results in a much higher ripple
current handling capability. The e.s.r. is even lower than
the new tantalum polymer hybrid capacitors. SPA’ s ultralow resistance magic is in the solid conductive polymer.
The series resistance of electrolytic capacitors is largely
determined by the resistivity of the electrolyte. Because
the resistivity of SPA’s polymer electrolyte is several
orders of magnitude less than that of other electrolytes,
the equivalent series resistance is almost zero.
Construction
Construction is a unique combination of the elements of pentoxide which is built upon a tantalum pellet anode.
aluminum electrolytic and solid tantalum capacitors.
A highly conductive polymer electrolyte film is deposited
over the aluminum oxide dielectric in SPA capacitors.
Like conventional aluminum electrolytic capacitors, Carbon and silver paint are used to finish the capacitor's
the anode in SPA capacitors is an aluminum plate on cathode. This is similar to what is used in solid tantalum
which an aluminum oxide layer has been built up by capacitors, where manganese dioxide is used as the
an electrolysis process. The aluminum oxide serves as electrolyte.
the dielectric in both SPA and conventional aluminum
electrolytics.
The capacitor element is encased in a molded resin that
is capable of meeting the UL-94,V0 flammability rating.
The dielectric in solid tantalum capacitors is tantalum The terminals are solder coated copper clad steel.
