Longer-life high-performance conductive aluminium polymer capacitors

Two new ranges of aluminium polymer capacitors featuring conductive technology have been introduced by Vishay. For portable electronics and consumer and telecom applications, the 180 CPS and 181 CPL series devices provide higher ripple current, lower impedance, and longer useful life than standard aluminium capacitors, says the company. Offered in a variety of case sizes from 5.3mm by 5.3mm by 5.7mm to 10.4mm by 10.4mm by 12mm, the 180 CPS and 181 CPL series capacitors offer long useful life of 2500h and 5000h at +105C, respectively. The devices deliver ripple current to 6100 mA and impedance down to 9mohm. The RoHS-compliant, surface-mount capacitors can support automatic placement and high-temperature reflow soldering according to JEDEC.
