AVX's professional multi-anode capacitor series combines ultra-low ESR with high reliability
AVX Corporation has developed an advanced SMD tantalum professional multi-anode capacitor series that provides ultra-low ESR and high reliability levels. Designated the TRM Series, the SMD tantalum multi-anode capacitor features failure rates better than 0.5%/1000 hours at full rated voltage and 85ºC.
Based on AVX's proven tantalum capacitor technology, the TRM Series delivers high reliability and ruggedness in combination with an ultra-low ESR multi-anode concept.
The new TRM Series capacitors are designed for high-end commercial applications with long operating life expectancies. Their low ESR value is achieved through the multi-anode construction, which provides larger surge current capability and high ripple current capacity within the same case size. Temperature cycling, double burn-in time (aging) and exception limit controls in place ensure superior quality and enhanced reliability levels within the commercial product portfolio.
"The TRM Series capacitors can withstand greater thermomechanical stress and harsh environments due to AVX's advanced manufacturing techniques and process improvements," said Dan Lane, marketing manager at AVX. "The new series combines the technology of AVX's established TPM Series multi-anode capacitor as well as the TRJ Series professional capacitor. The result is an ultra-robust capacitor that is not only twice as reliable, but also provides reduced DC leakage current values when compared to conventional commercial capacitors."
Applications include non-life support medical equipment, avionics and safety products, long-life telecommunication devices and automotive components.
