Tantalum Polymer Capacitors Benefits in Decoupling Applications

Tantalum Polymer Capacitors Benefits in Decoupling Applications
Decoupling capacitors do more than just prevent voltage drops and pulse peaks on the supply lines from reaching the circuit in the application and limiting its functionality. When the correct capacitors are selected, they can also reduce costs, required space, and idle state power consumption. This article published by Rutronik in collaboration with KEMET explains tantalum polymer capacitors benefits in decoupling applications.

MIL Spec MIL-PRF vs Automotive AEC-Q200 Explained

MIL Spec MIL-PRF vs Automotive AEC-Q200 Explained
Manufacturers of commercial space and avionics systems sometimes turn to AEC-Q200 automotive-rated passive electronic components for non mission critical applications, as a way of balancing quality and cost requirements. When making this choice, however, they need to be aware that not all AEC-Q200 qualified parts are created equal; the standard defines test procedures while leaving acceptance criteria up to the user and the supplier. This white paper from Vishay explains some of the background and differences of these specs for a proper selection of the right specification.
