Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors
Radial, High Temperature, Low Impedance

FEATURES
• Very long useful life:
2500 h to 6000 h at 125 °C
• High stability, high reliability
• Very low ESR
• AEC-Q200 qualified
• Excellent ripple current capability
• Polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitors,
non-solid electrolyte
• Radial leads, cylindrical aluminum case with pressure
relief, insulated with a blue PET sleeve
• Charge and discharge proof
• Material categorization: for definitions of compliance
please see www.vishay.com/doc?99912

APPLICATIONS
• Power supplies (SMPS, DC/DC converters) for industrial,
automotive, telecommunications and military
• Smoothing, filtering and buffering

MARKING
The capacitors are marked (where possible) with the
following information:
• Rated capacitance (in μF)
• Tolerance on rated capacitance, code letter in accordance
with IEC 60062 (M for ± 20 %)
• Rated voltage (in V)
• Date code, in accordance with IEC 60062
• Code indicating factory of origin
• Logo of manufacturer
• Upper category temperature (125 °C)
• Negative terminal identification
• Series number (190)
