RATINGS & PART NUMBER REFERENCE
Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is defined according to J-STD-020.
All technical data relates to an ambient temperature of +25ºC. Capacitance and DF are measured at 120Hz, 0.5RMS with DC bias of 2.2 volts. DCL is measured at
rated voltage after 5 minutes.
ESR allowed to move up to 1.25 times catalog limit post mounting.
For typical weight and composition see page 204.
NOTE: AVX reserves the right to supply a higher voltage rating or tighter tolerance part in the same case size, to the same reliability standards.
