KEMET Organic Capacitor (KO-CAP) – Low ESR 

**T528 Series Low ESL Facedown Terminal Polymer Tantalum** 

## **Overview** 

The KEMET Organic Capacitor (KO-CAP) is a tantalum capacitor with a Ta anode and Ta2O5 dielectric. A conductive organic polymer replaces the traditionally used MnO2 as the cathode plate of the capacitor. This results in very low ESR and improved capacitance retention at high frequency. The KO-CAP also exhibits a benign failure mode which eliminates the ignition failures that can occur in standard MnO2 tantalum types. KOCAPs may also be operated at steady state voltages up to 90% of rated voltage for part types with rated voltages of ≤ 10 volts and up to 80% of rated voltage for part types > 10 volts with equivalent or better reliability than traditional MnO2 tantalum capacitors operated at 50% of rated voltage. 

The T528 Series KO-CAP combines ultra-low ESR and high capacitance in a package design that offers the lowest ESL in the market for this type of product. This series offers exceptional performance for high-speed server and microprocessor decoupling – designs that are driving the demand for low inductance chips. The T528 uses a different termination design that allows for a reduction in the inductance loop area and comes in a low profile 1.7 mm case height. These product features offer the advantage of improved capacitance retention at frequencies of up to 1 MHz.

## **Ripple Current/Ripple Voltage** 

Permissible AC ripple voltage and current are related to equivalent series resistance (ESR) and the power dissipation capabilities of the device. Permissible AC ripple voltage which may be applied is limited by two criteria: 

1. The positive peak AC voltage plus the DC bias voltage, if any, must not exceed the DC voltage rating of the capacitor. 

2. The negative peak AC voltage in combination with bias voltage, if any, must not exceed the allowable limits specified for reverse voltage. See the Reverse Voltage section for allowable limits. 

The maximum power dissipation by case size can be determined using the table at right. The maximum power dissipation rating stated in the table must be reduced with increasing environmental operating temperatures. Refer to the table below for temperature compensation requirements. 

|**Case Code**|**EIA**<br>**Case Code**|**Maximum Power**<br>**Dissipation (P max)**<br>**mWatts @ 45°C with**<br>**+30°C Rise**|

|D|7343-31|255|
|Y|7343-40|263|
|X|7443-43|270|



_The maximum power dissipation rating must be reduced with increasing environmental operating temperatures. Refer to the Temperature Compensation Multiplier table for details._ 

|**Temperature Compensation Multipliers**<br>**for Maximum Ripple Current**|**Temperature Compensation Multipliers**<br>**for Maximum Ripple Current**|**Temperature Compensation Multipliers**<br>**for Maximum Ripple Current**|

|1.00|0.70|0.25|



_T= Environmental Temperature_ 

Using the P max of the device, the maximum allowable rms ripple current or voltage may be determined. 

_I(max) = √P max/R E(max) = Z √P max/R_ 

_I = rms ripple current (amperes) E = rms ripple voltage (volts)_ 

_P max = maximum power dissipation (watts) R = ESR at specified frequency (ohms) Z = Impedance at specified frequency (ohms)_

## **Reverse Voltage** 

Polymer tantalum capacitors are polar devices and may be permanently damaged or destroyed if connected in the wrong polarity. These devices will withstand a small degree of transient voltage reversal for short periods as shown in the below table. 

|**Temperature**|**Permissible Transient Reverse Voltage**|
|---|---|
|25°C|15% of Rated Voltage|
|55°C|10% of Rated Voltage|
|85°C|5% of Rated Voltage|
|105°C|3% of Rated Voltage|

KEMET Organic Capacitor (KO-CAP) – Low ESR T528 Series Low ESL Facedown Terminal Polymer Tantalum 

## **Soldering Process** 

KEMET’s families of surface mount capacitors are compatible with wave (single or dual), convection, IR, or vapor phase reflow techniques. Preheating of these components is recommended to avoid extreme thermal stress. KEMET's recommended profile conditions for convection and IR reflow reflect the profile conditions of the IPC/J–STD–020D standard for moisture sensitivity testing. The devices can safely withstand a maximum of three reflow passes at these conditions. 

Please note that although the X/7343–43 case size can withstand wave soldering, the tall profile (4.3 mm maximum) dictates care in wave process development. 

Hand soldering should be performed with care due to the difficulty in process control. If performed, care should be taken to avoid contact of the soldering iron to the molded case. The iron should be used to heat the solder pad, applying solder between the pad and the termination, until reflow occurs. Once reflow occurs, the iron should be removed immediately. “Wiping” the edges of a chip and heating the top surface is not recommended. 

During typical reflow operations, a slight darkening of the goldcolored epoxy may be observed. This slight darkening is normal and not harmful to the product. Marking permanency is not affected by this change.

## **Storage** 

All KO-CAP series are shipped in moisture barrier bags with a desiccant and moisture indicator card. These series are classified as MSL3 (Moisture Sensitivity Level 3). Product contained within the moisture barrier bags should be stored in normal working environments with temperatures not to exceed 40°C and humidity not in excess of 90% RH.
