KEMET Organic Capacitor (KO-CAP) – Low ESR

T520 Series Polymer Tantalum

SPICE

Foradetailedanalysisofspecificpartnumbers,pleasevisitwww.kemet.comforafreedownloadofKEMET'sSPICEsoftware.

The KEMET SPICE program is freeware intended to aid design engineers in analyzing the performance of these capacitors over

frequency, temperature, ripple, and DC bias conditions.

Applications

Typical applications include DC/DC converters, notebook PCs, portable electronics, telecommunications (mobile phone and base

station), displays, SSD, HDD and USB.
