SuperTan® Wet Tantalum Capacitors With Hermetic Seal,
Extended Range
FEATURES
Vishay SuperTan® Extended (STE) represents a
major breakthrough in wet tantalum capacitor
Available
technology. Its unique cathode system, also used
in the ST, provides the highest capacitance per
Available
unit volume available. The STE combines the
inherent reliability of wet tantalum with the capacitance
stability of solid tantalum, and there are no circuit
impedance restrictions. The range is exceptionally well
suited for low voltage filtering and energy storage
applications. Ideal for designs targeting the military and
aerospace industry.
LINKS TO ADDITIONAL RESOURCES
The SuperTan® Extended (STE) is housed in an all tantalum,
hermetically sealed case and is manufactured to withstand
high stress and hazardous environments.
