Aluminum Capacitors

Little-Lytic Electrolytics

FEATURES

• Proven dependable performance in the industrial

and electronic equipment with either transistor or

modified electron-tube circuits

• All terminal connections welded, eliminating

possibility of open or intermittent contacts occasionally

found in pressure joints of conventional capacitors

• Superior in size, performance characteristics, shelf life,

construction and reliability

• Metal-encased with clear plastic outer insulating sleeve

• Excellent circuit performance when used as coupling

capacitors

• Minimum drain and long battery life when used in battery

bypass applications

• Better performance under life test than most miniature

aluminum electrolytic capacitors

•Axial lead

• Material categorization: For definitions of compliance

 to 600  max. at 120 Hz,

depending upon capacitance

Life validation test

2000 h at + 85 °C

After test, capacitance value shall

not have changed by more than ± 20 %,

the equivalent series resistance in ohms

shall not have exceeded 150 % of initial

requirement and the leakage current

shall not have exceeded the

initial requirement.

DC leakage current

Maximum DC leakage current at + 25 °C

for all capacitors is 15 μA, except units

in case code DD, which is 15.8 μA.

Shelf test

250 h at + 85 °C,

with no voltage applied

The capacitance and equivalent series

resistance shall meet the initial

requirements and the DC leakage

current shall not exceed 300 % of the

initial requirement.
