Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. introduced a new series of vPolyTan surface-mount polymer tantalum molded chip capacitors, designed to deliver reliable performance in high temperature and humidity.

Vishay Polytech T50 series capacitors feature a reliable design with improved hermeticity for increased protection in harsh environments.

The devices offer high-temperature operation to +125° C and withstand temperature humidity bias (THB) testing of 85° C, 85 % relative humidity for 500 hours. These specifications make the capacitors ideal for decoupling, smoothing, and filtering in the harsh environments of industrial, military, aerospace, and edge-computing applications.

Offered in the D case (EIA 7343-30) size, the T50 series features ultra-low ESR down to 25 mΩ and ripple current to 3.0 A. The devices offer a wide capacitance range from 10 µF to 330 µF over voltage ratings from 2.5  to 35 V, and a capacitance tolerance of ± 20 %.

The capacitors are RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and Vishay Green.

Samples and production quantities of the T50 series are available now, with lead times of 12 to 14 weeks. Pricing for U.S. delivery starts at $0.45 per piece.
