Niobium oxide capacitors feature lower
ESR
AVX has launched an ultralow-ESR version of its OxiCap niobium oxide solid electrolyte capacitor.
AVX has launched an ultralow-ESR version of its OxiCap niobium oxide solid electrolyte capacitor that has been designed as lead and halogen-free, non-burn up to rated voltage, environmentally friendly replacements for aluminium, polymer and high CV ceramic devices NOS OxiCap devices offer ESR performance down to 35mohm (V case size), reliability figures of 0.2%/kh - ie 500kh MTBF - and a temperature rating up to 125C

High-frequency capacitors cut stray inductance
Medium-power devices are targeted at situations where standard capacitors cannot handle the high-frequency ripple currents experienced.
Voltage range is 1.8 to 6.3V (10V version to be released soon).
For even lower ESR performance, the multiple-anode NOM series is available down to 23mohm on selected voltage and capacitances.
NbO capacitors feature electrical characteristics that are the same as or better than tantalum devices.
And NbO, unlike tantalum, is readily available and powder can be prepared by an easier process, yet devices can be manufactured on existing standard tantalum processing lines.
All of AVX's new OxiCap range is offered in standard EIA case sizes.
They have been designed so that users can move easily to lead-free production processing.
Typical applications include PC notebooks, automotive, mobile phones, digital cameras and PDAs. Request a free brochure from AVX ...
