Back in April of this year, Kemet debuted its "Tantalum Surface Mount Space Grade Capacitors" Catalog. This catalog describes four series of capacitors that are especially suitable for military and spaceflight applications that place high demands on reliability:
T493 COTS Series T496 Fail-Safe Fused Series T497 High Grade COTS Series T510 High Capacitance, Low ESR Series
The new components comply with the requirements of MIL-PRF-55365 and MIL-STD-1580. In addition to the usual information (product series, package, capacitance, tolerance, voltage), the complete ordering numbers of the new products also provide information about the following characteristics:
Error rate (Weibull):
C=0.01%/k Hours
Peak curretn:
10 cykle at 25°C 10 cykle at -55°C to +85°C before test of error rate 10 cykle at -55°C to +85°C after test of error rate
