ORIENTATION OF POLARITY: All polarized capacitors must be oriented in the same direction. INTERRUPTION OF SEQUENCE: No consecutive capacitors may be absent. Empty spaces <0.1% of reel quantity. Formed lead Taping SPLICES: Splice tape strength must be equal to Non-splice tape. Splice thickness: <4 single tape layers Splice offset: <0.3 mm REFERENCE STANDARD: EIA RS 468A SH Taping SQ Taping Straight lead Taping Formed lead spacing Straight lead spacing 4.0 5.0 6.3 8.0 10.0 12.5 16.0/ 18.0 12.5 Tol. 5.0 1.5/2.5 2.0/2.5 2.5 3.5 5.0 5.0 7.5 5.0 +0.8/-0.2 Taping code SA ST1/ ST ST2/ ST ST SF SA SA SQ SH Capacitor Pitch (P) 12.7 12.7 25.4 30.0 15.0 +1.0 Feed hole pitch (Po) 12.7 12.7 12.7 15.0 15.0 +0.3 Feed hole to first lead (P1) 3.85 Carrier width (W) 18.0 18.0 18.0 +0.5 9.0 9.0 9.0 +0.5 Case Diameter (D) 4.0 Lead spacing (S) Feed hole position (W1) Height of seating plane (H) Lead wire clinch Height (H0) Feed Hole Diameter (D0) Front to Back inclination (Δh) Body inclination (Δh1) Tape thickness (t) 17.5 5.0 6.3 18.5 8.0 5.1 18.5 20.0 3.85 3.85 18.5 3.75 18.5 16.0 +0.7 +0.75 16.0 ----- ---- +0.5 4.0 4.0 4.0 +0.3 0.0 0.0 0.0 +2.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 +2.0 0.7 0.7 0.7 +0.2 Box Quantity Box Dimensions (mm) D L H T <6.3 325 229 51 8.0 330 240 51 10.0 330 191 51 12.5 325 267 58 16.0 315 221 63 18.0 343 275 63 For D<8mm and Capacitor length <7mm box thickness is 45mm.
