ZIF connectors lock securely
Locking feature prevents accidental removal of the cable in the field and delivers uncreased robustness against vibration.
The niobium oxide-based system is lead and halogen-free, environmentally friendly, and provides a high level of safety and security due to self-healing and self-arresting mechanisms.
The parts offer an MTBF in the range of 200,000 to 500,000 hours, performing 100 times better than aluminium electrolyte capacitors.
Moreover, they do not suffer from the dry out condition.
Furthermore, OxiCap capacitors withstand a 3x reflow profile up to 260C, complying with JEDEC 020C lead-free requirements.
Such performance enables mass production of advanced PCBs including rework.
The devices are RoHS-compliant and offer a reliable alternative to aluminium electrolytics.
OxiCap is ideal for consumer, automotive entertainment, high volume cellular and computer applications.
Niobium oxide capacitors are manufactured and sold under patent licence from Cabot Corporation, Boyertown, Pennsylvania USA. Request a free brochure from AVX ...
