The new TR8 series of Molded MicroTan™ tantalum chip capacitors from Vishay Intertechnology provides ultra-low ESR values of 0.8 Ω (at 100 kHz and 47 µF) in the 0805 case size and an industry-low 1.5 Ω in the 0603 case size. Low ESR values combined with small footprints allows for greater efficiency in audio filtering and signal processing applications where PCB real estate is limited. Capacitance values for the TR8 series range from 1.0 µF to 220 µF, with standard capacitance tolerances of ±10 percent and ±20 percent. Voltage ratings range from 4 WVDC to 16 WVDC. Operating temperature range for the devices is -55 degrees C to +85 degrees C, or +125 degrees C with voltage derating. The TR8 series is RoHS compliant and completely halogen free. They feature lead-free L-shape facedown terminations for better contact to the solder pad. Find additional information on these capacitors at the Vishay Intertechnologywebsite.
