AVX Corporation, Greenville, SC, introduces the TAZ HRC5000 Medical Grade Tantalum Series. Designed for use in implantable medical devices, the new high-reliability, medical-grade tantalum capacitor series is rated for 4V to 50V and -55ºC to +125ºC, has a capacitance range of 0.1μF to 330μF, and features extremely low DC leakage limits well below typical industry values. Available in case sizes ranging from A-H, the TAZ HRC5000 Series capacitors are some of the smallest tantalum chip capacitors currently on the market.

The series is available with several customization options to better suit individual medical and other high-reliability/low-leakage tantalum applications. These include custom DC leakage limits, various plating materials (tin/lead solder, 100% tin, or gold), and standard and low ESR variations, in addition to two reliability verification procedures: Weibull grading and surge current testing per MIL-PRF-55365. TAZ HRC5000 Medical Grade Tantalum Series parts are manufactured and tested at AVX’s ISO 13485-certified, high-reliability tantalum manufacturing facility in Biddeford, Maine.
