Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. Tantalum Capacitors T95R187K016CZSS

The T95R187K016CZSS is a solid tantalum chip capacitor from Lingto Electronic Limited, designed for high reliability applications. It features a capacitance of 180 µF with a tolerance of ±10% and a voltage rating of 16 VDC. The capacitor operates effectively within a temperature range of -55 °C to +125 °C, although voltage derating is required above 85 °C. This component is available with both SnPb and 100% tin terminations, and it is compliant with moisture sensitivity level 2a. The capacitor is suitable for applications requiring low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and has been subjected to surge current testing per MIL-PRF-55365. It is also halogen-free, making it a suitable choice for environmentally conscious designs. Engineers considering this capacitor should note its performance characteristics, including a maximum dissipation factor and leakage current limits, which are critical for ensuring reliability in demanding applications.
