POLYMER Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

Product catalog summary
Overview: Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd.'s ECAS series of polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitors are engineered for low ESR, low impedance, and high capacitance. They feature multilayered aluminum foil for the anode and a solid conductive polymer for the cathode, ensuring stable temperature characteristics and superior performance in ripple absorption and transient response.
Key Features:
  • High capacitance and low ESR
  • Stable capacitance under various conditions
  • No voltage derating required
  • Surface mount construction
  • RoHS compliant and halogen-free
  • Capacitance range: 6.8 to 560μF
  • Operating temperature: -40°C to +105°C
  • Rated voltage: 2 to 16Vdc
  • ESR: 4.5 to 70mΩ
Applications: These capacitors are ideal for smoothing input-output current in power supply circuits and backup use over load changes in CPU environments. They are applicable in computers, digital AV, telecom, and more.
Specifications:
  • Operating temperature range: -40°C to +105°C
  • Capacitance tolerance: ±20%
  • Moisture resistance and endurance tests conducted under specified conditions
Design Support Tool: SimSurfing software is available for simulation, providing frequency responses and downloadable netlist and S-parameter data.
Cautions:
  • Avoid use in prohibited circuits such as time-constant or coupling circuits.
  • Ensure correct polarity to prevent damage.
  • Maintain operating voltage within rated limits.
  • Protect against excessive inrush current and ripple current.
  • Consider operating temperature limits and avoid exceeding them.
  • Handle with care during reflow soldering to prevent damage.
Storage Conditions:
  • The warranty term is two years when stored in a moisture-proof bag under specified conditions: room temperature of 5-30°C and humidity not exceeding 60%RH.
  • Avoid storing in environments with corrosive gases or high humidity to prevent leakage current and circuit damage.
  • After opening, confirm a dry state with a humidity indicator card. If necessary, bake the capacitors at 60°C for 168 hours.
  • The product meets MSL-3 standards.
Cautions for Use:
  • Complies with EU RoHS, restricting hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment.
  • Export control restrictions apply, prohibiting use in weapons or military applications without appropriate licenses.
  • Consult sales representatives before using products in high-reliability applications such as aerospace, medical, or disaster prevention equipment.
  • Product specifications are subject to change; verify with sales representatives before ordering.
  • Read all ratings and cautions to prevent issues like smoking or burning.
  • No ozone-depleting substances are used in manufacturing.
Note:
  • Product specifications are as of September 2014 and may change without notice.
  • Murata assumes no responsibility for conflicts related to intellectual property rights.
