Organic Semiconductor Caps Tout Improved Specs

Three new series of organic semiconductor (OS-CON) capacitors are available. The FP series has a higher CV value and lower ESR when compared with the existing FA series, thanks to silver-plated lead terminals and better filtering capability for dc-to-dc converters or in low voltage power supplies. The FH series has a 5000 hour life at 105°C, and the FS series has the smallest case size at 5 x 5 mm to allow shrinking of dc-to-dc converters or power supplies. Voltage ratings are 4 to 25 vdc depending upon the series. Sizes are 5 x 5 mm to 10 x 10 mm.
