A new space grade series of capacitors from KEMET Corporation has been crafted especially for use by military/aerospace customers in high-reliability applications. These capacitors meet the requirements for MIL-PRF-55365 as well as MIL-STD 1580. These devices incorporate an intensive testing and screening protocol that can be customized to meet the specific needs of an application. The part number is designed to allow for designation of Weibull grading (level C – 0.01%/k hours), surge current level (10 cycles at 25 C, 10 cycles -55 C and +85 C before/after Weibull grading), performance testing level, ESR (low and standard), and termination finish. Fused versions are available for built-in circuit protection, and multiple anode designs are available for very low ESR values. Find additional product information on the KEMET website.
