COMPONENT
NOTE: Conductive Polymer Capacitors are designed to operate within the limits of the environmental conditions specied for each series. If operated continuously at their maximum
temperature and / or humidity limit, or beyond these limits, capacitors may exhibit a parametric shift in capacitance and increases in ESR. These changes may occur earlier if the specied
environmental conditions are exceeded. Similarly, their normal operational time period will be signicantly extended if their general duty cycle includes operation below maximum
temperature within humidity controlled environments. Careful attention should be paid to maximum temperature with associated high humidity environments as well as voltage derating,
ripple current and current surges. Please reference the AVX Conductive Polymer Capacitor Guidelines for more information or contact factory for application assistance.
SnPb termination option is not
RoHS compliant.

Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is dened according to J-STD-020. All technical data relates to an ambient temperature of +25ºC. Capacitance and DF are measured
at 120Hz, 0.5RMS with DC bias of 2.2 volts. DCL is measured at rated voltage after 5 minutes. ESR allowed to move up to 1.25 times catalog limit post mounting. For
typical weight and composition see page 276. NOTE: AVX reserves the right to supply higher voltage ratings or tighter tolerance part in the same case size, to the same
reliability standards.
