TFV SERIES: EVEN LOWER ESR FOR SMD APPLICATIONS

RUBYCON has introduced the TFV series of SMD elcaps, which feature even lower ESR values and a higher current load capacity than any previous types. As a result, RUBYCON offers the ideal capacitor for DC/DC converters that rely on SMD assembly. The devices' low impedance and compact dimensions also make the TFV a good alternative to tantalum capacitors. With a more robust construction, aluminum elcaps do not require a voltage derating at high temperatures, whereas tantalum caps do. Thus, you can be sure that a 35V rating truly means 35V and 16V elcaps will indeed suit a 16V application!

Key parameters of the TFV series include:

Rated Voltage: 6.3V to 35V
Capacitance: 6.8µF to 820µF
Temperature Range: -55°C to +105°C
Service Life: 2000 hours at up to 105°C
Dimensions: 4mm x 6.1mm to 10mm x 10.5mm



 

The following provides a comparison to RUBYCON's "best" SMD elcap to date (the TZV): bitte Tabelle einfügen

Of course, the TFV series is ROHS compliant, which means it is also designed to withstand higher soldering temperatures during assembly.

We would be pleased to provide you with the detailed specs, or to otherwise help you find the device that meets your requirements!
