SP Cap, the Specialty Polymer Aluminium Electrolytic Capacitors of Panasonic. With an experience of over 25 years in the area of Polymer Capacitors, Panasonic SP Caps are the ideal solution for your design, an excellent alternative to Tantalum Capacitors, as an input and output filter for power supplies and transformers, in various Industrial applications and embedded systems. Basically everywhere a rapid energy flow is need and low ESR.
SP Caps feature extremely stable temperature and frequency characteristics, low ESR, high reliability and long life meeting the requirements of high-end applications. The main advantage over Tantalum Capacitors are that you don’t have to voltage de-rate in your circuit. With excellent safety characteristics SP Caps are not flammable and do not smoke at overvoltage conditions with the Polymer changing to insulation substance at high temperature level.
Panasonic SP Caps are available as low profile construction with heights going down to 1.1mm (SS Series), as super low ESR until 3mOhm (GX Series). The low ESL SP Caps (LX Series) enables especially at high frequency usage low ESR values. The SP Cap range of Panasonic allows various possibilities for upgrades and miniaturisation of your design.
The miniaturised design with excellent technical characteristics are therefore suitable for a wide range of applications.
