The Nippon Chemi-Con PSA series of radial lead capacitors uses the same materials and design principles as the surface mount PXA series.

The Nippon Chemi-Con PSA series of radial lead capacitors uses the same materials and design principles as the surface mount PXA series A conductive polymer is used to create low equivalent series resistance (ESR), high temperature resistance and a high ripple current capability

The conductive polymer results in capacitors with a greater resonant frequency than those made from materials such as tantalum and with liquid electrolytes.

With a rated voltage range of 205-16V DC, the capacitors function for 2kh hours at 105C.

The capacitance change following this test was less than 20% of the initial rated value and the ESR was less than 150% of the original value.

Similar results were achieved when the capacitors were subjected to 1000 cycles with the surge voltage specified at 105C for 30s and a discharge of 5min and 30s.

The capacitance range is 47-1000uF.

The PSA radial lead series is designed for use on DC/DC convertors, voltage regulators and decoupling applications on computer motherboards.
