Usage and Precautions
To ensure stable performance, verify operating conditions and specified performance before use. Adhere to all conditions in the specification sheet.
1.1 Operating Voltage
Capacitor failure is significantly influenced by the ratio of service voltage to rated voltage. In practical circuit design, reduce voltage appropriately based on required reliability. For low impedance circuits, set operating voltage below 1/3 of rated voltage; for other circuits, below 2/3 of rated voltage. Parallel use in low impedance circuits increases the risk of DC surge current failure. Control instantaneous large currents; a series resistor (3/Vs) is recommended to limit current below 300mAs. If a protection resistor cannot be used, operate below 1/3 of rated voltage.
1.2 Reverse Voltage
Tantalum capacitors are polarized; do not apply reverse voltage or use in AC-only circuits. If unavoidable, a small reverse voltage is permissible for short periods: 10% UR or 1V (whichever is smaller) at 25; 5% UR or 0.5V (whichever is smaller) at 85. For long-term use in reverse circuits, use non-polar capacitors. Do not test tantalum capacitors with multimeters without regard to polarity. If a capacitor is subjected to improper reverse voltage during measurement, it must be scrapped, even if electrical parameters remain within specifications.
1.3 Ripple Voltage
Use within the specified permissible ripple voltage. The sum of DC bias and AC peak voltage must not exceed the capacitor's rated voltage. The sum of the AC negative peak and DC bias must not exceed the capacitor's allowable reverse voltage. Ripple current causes power loss and increases the risk of thermal breakdown. Limit ripple current and allowable power loss.
1.4 Environmental Temperature
Use within the specified operating temperature range. Derate voltage when operating above +85. Temperature characteristics are crucial; confirm circuit performance at temperature limits. Generally, design capacitors based on a 1000-hour failure rate at +85 under continuous rated voltage. Voltage derating (recommended to below 65% UR) is necessary to account for peak voltage/current surges, ripple current, and other electrical shocks. For safety-critical equipment, design with protective circuits, devices, and systems, and consider redundant circuits to prevent single-point failures.
1.5 Frequency Dependence
Electrical characteristics change significantly around 10kHz. Confirm circuit characteristics when using in high-frequency circuits.
1.6 Reliability
Failure rates vary with operating conditions (ambient temperature, applied voltage, circuit resistance, etc.). Thoroughly evaluate usage conditions before selecting a product.
Installation and Handling Precautions
CAPACITOR MOUNING PRECAUTIONS
When mounting on a PCB, avoid excessive mechanical or thermal shock to prevent electrical characteristic deterioration or short circuits. Confirm actual installation conditions before use.
2.1 Processing and Measurement
Avoid applying excessive external force during use to prevent damage to the capacitor body or plating on lead terminals. Do not reuse dropped or previously installed capacitors. Do not process or bend terminals after installation. Avoid direct contact with bare hands on lead wires during measurement and use to prevent contamination from sweat or oil, which can lead to poor solderability.
2.2 Circuit Board Cleaning
When cleaning, quickly remove acids, alkalis, and flux used in soldering. Cleaning temperature should be below 50. Total immersion time for ultrasonic or steam cleaning should not exceed 5 minutes.
2.3 Soldering with Soldering Iron
Use a soldering iron tip temperature below 350 and for a duration within 4 seconds. Ensure the soldering iron tip does not touch the capacitor body.
2.4 Chip Type Soldering
For both manual and reflow soldering, avoid highly active or strong acidic fluxes to prevent penetration, corrosion, and diffusion after cleaning, which can affect reliability. Temperatures applied to components vary based on PCB, component type, size, and packaging. Chip tantalum capacitors can be soldered using jet or reflow methods under specified conditions.
Wave Soldering (Soldering Dip)
Fix the component to the circuit with adhesive and dip directly into the solder pot. Note: High mounting density can reduce solderability; ensure proper venting. Preheating should be below 160 for under 2 minutes. Cool slowly after soldering. For other methods like hot plate or vapor soldering, confirm and consult. If solder pads are significantly larger than terminal faces, solder melt may cause misalignment.
Reflow Method (Atmosphere Heating Method)
Use under specified conditions (details not provided in text).
2.2 Environmental Use
Do not use in environments with direct contact with water, brine, or oil; direct sunlight; high temperature and humidity causing condensation; exposure to reactive gases; acidic or alkaline environments; high-frequency wave induction; or excessive vibration or shock.
