Combining polymer tantalum technology with Vishay’s high-efficiency MicroTan packaging, the T58 series achieves industry-best capacitance-voltage ratings in six molded case codes, including 47µF6.3V in the compact M0 (1608-10) case and 220µF-10V and 330µF-6.3V in the BB (3528-20). Leveraging patented MAP (multi-array packaging) assembly technology, the capacitors provide a 10 % improvement in space utilization compared to similar devices Save PCB space and enable the design of smaller and thinner end products Rectangular molded case encapsulation is ideal for high-volume PCB assembly Special lead (Pb)-free L-shaped facedown terminations offer better contact to the solder pad than traditional facedown style terminations Product Group: Vishay, Tantalum Capacitors / February 2016 The Key Specifications: Capacitance range: 10 µF to 330 µF Capacitance tolerance: 20 % Voltage ratings: 4 V to 25 V ESR at 25 C and 100 kHz: 50 m to 500 m Ripple at 100 kHz: 0.224 A to 1.30 A Operating temperature range: -55 °C to +105 °C (with voltage derating above +85 °C) Case codes: MM (1608-09) M0 (1608-10) W9 (2012-09) A0 (3216-18) AA (3216-18) B0 (3528-10) BB (3528-20) Availability: Samples and production quantities of the T58 series capacitors are available now, with lead times of six to eight weeks for large orders.
