Today, the commercial power supply market is acutely aware of the need to minimise failure rates as more of their products are being designed into high-end systems. This has led to an increased demand for different levels of low-ESR capacitors with enhanced reliability. In response, for high-end commercial applications requiring a confirmed level of reliability, AVX has introduced a new range of products within its TRJ series of tantalum chip capacitors.
124 new ratings are now available in the TRJ series with maximum ESR reduced to levels previously only available in specialty, low-ESR TPS series devices. This enables designers of power supplies for use in long life expectancy applications to use tantalum capacitors with the combined benefits of enhanced reliability (0,5%/1000 hrs) and low ESR.
AVX developed its TRJ series for use in demanding environments that call for high performance under electrical and mechanical stress, and technical improvements were made that strengthen the structure of the capacitor and make it more robust in such environments.
The new capacitors are available in EIA standard A, B, C, D and E case sizes in voltages ranging from 6,3 to 50 V and capacitance values from 0,1 to 470 μF.
