Important Notes:

• Design and specifications are subject to change without notice.
• Ask factory for current technical specifications before purchase and/or use.
• Refer to each page in the catalog for Reflow conditions, Taping specifications, and Floor life level.
• For applications requiring special qualities or reliability, or where failure may jeopardize human life or cause personal injury, it is necessary to verify product specifications and consult with the manufacturer.
• Products are guaranteed for quality and performance as individual components. Durability differs depending on the environment and usage conditions. Evaluate compatibility with actual conditions when installed in the customer's products.
• Do not use products beyond the specifications described in this document.
• For safety-critical applications, install protection circuits and redundant circuits.
• Avoid use in special conditions such as in liquids, direct sunlight, dust, corrosive atmospheres, strong static electricity, or high vibration/shock environments.
• Misuse can result in rapid deterioration of characteristics and functions. Electrolyte leakage can damage printed circuits and affect system performance.
• Prohibited circuits include high impedance voltage retention circuits, coupling circuits, time constant circuits, circuits greatly affected by leakage current, and series connections to raise endurance voltage.
• Failure rate is 0.5 % / 1000 h (Confidence level: 60%) for B2 size or larger. Main failure modes include short circuit and open circuit (wear-out failure).
• Consider safety measures in case of short circuit, such as turning off power and using protective circuits.
• Rapid charge and discharge are restricted; protective circuits are recommended for excessive rush current.
• Soldering conditions must be within the prescribed range to avoid degradation of electric characteristics and lifetime.
• Electrical characteristics are affected by temperature and frequency fluctuations.
• Storage of POSCAP should be in a sealed moisture-proof bag at room temperature and humidity (15 to 35 C, 45 to 75% RH), away from direct sunshine. Unseal just before mounting and use within the bag. Storage period of unopened product is 18 months or shorter after shipment.
