Section 3: Introduction Foreword AVX offers a broad line of solid Tantalum capacitors in a wide AVX has a complete tantalum applications service available range of sizes, styles, and ratings to meet any design needs. for use by all our customers. With the capability to prototype This catalog combines into one source AVXs leaded tanta- and mass produce solid tantalum capacitors in special lum capacitor information from its worldwide tantalum oper- configurations, almost any design need can be fulfilled. ations. And if the customer requirements are outside our standard testing, AVX will work with you to define and implement a test The TAP/TEP is rated for use from -55C to +85C at rated or screening plan. voltage and up to +125C with voltage derating. There are three preferred wire forms to choose from which are AVX is determined to become the world leader in tantalum available on tape and reel, and in bulk for hand insertion. capacitor technology and has made, and is continuing to make, significant investments in equipment and research to Four sizes of molded axials, the TAR series, are also reach that end. We believe that the investment has paid off available. The TAR is fully marked and available on tape and with the devices shown on the following pages. reel for high speed insertion. The TAA is a hermetically sealed series also with four case sizes available. Dipped Radial Capacitors SOLID TANTALUM RESIN DIPPED SERIES TAP/TEP The TAP/TEP resin dipped series of miniature tantalum capacitors is available for individual needs in both commercial and professional applications. From computers to automotive to industrial, AVX has a dipped radial for almost any applica- tion.
