AVX expands commercial-grade SMD tantalum capacitor series

Designed for high-end commercial applications requiring an extended product life, AVX Corp.’s expanded TRM and TRJ 'Professional' Series of SMD tantalum capacitors provide ultra-stable parameters, resistance to harsh environments and high reliability.

The Professional TRM Series and TRJ Series tantalum capacitors feature low ESR values and reduce DCL (DC leakage current) by 25%.  They are capable of withstanding high thermo-mechanical stresses and operating in harsh environments and boast high reliability levels, with failure rates of better than 0.5%/1000 hours at 85ºC and full-rated voltage.

Technical specifications for the TRJ Professional series:

• Voltage range of 6.3V to 50V
• DCL leakage of 0.0075CV
• Mean time between failures (MTBF) of 200,000 hours
• Tested to withstand high current surges
• Qualified to AECQ-200 automotive requirements

Technical specifications for the TRM Professional series:

• Multianode type tantalum capacitor
• Voltage range of 6.3V - 50V 
• DCL leakage of 0.0075CV
• High reliability: 0.5%/1khrs
• MTBF is 200,000 hours
• Acceptable Quality Level is 0.10% for the TRM Professional against 0.25% for standard product
• Qualified to AECQ-200

Availability: Lead time of 12 weeks
