Yageo KEMET A700 and A720 polymer aluminum capacitors
Yageo KEMET announces A700 and A720 polymer aluminum capacitors
The Yageo KEMET Aluminum Organic Capacitor (AO-CAP) is a solid state aluminum capacitor. The cathode is a conductive organic polymer, which results in very low ESR and improved capacitance retention at high frequency. AO-CAPs may be operated at steady state voltages up to 100% of rated voltage without the need to de-rate.
Since there is no liquid electrolyte, the AO-CAP offers long operational lifetimes, low ESR, and high operational temperatures. The inherent low ESR renders the AO-CAP suitable for high ripple current handling. The small package size, high ripple current capability, high operating temperature, low parasistics, and high capacitance makes it ideal for high performance microprocessor, FPGA, and ASIC decoupling designs.
