TCS is a COTS Plus upscreened version of TCM conductive polymer multianode series designed for use in demanding industrial applications requiring extremely low ESR with stable, high frequency CAP retention and longer life performance. It can find it’s used also in automotive applications. All parts are subjected to KYOCERA AVX’s maverick part control with statistical screening and process control enhancements. The series exhibits improved basic reliability with robust J-lead design for long operation lifetime. Rated for operation up to 125°C. Additional surge screening and SnPb plating optional upon request.
