AVX presently offers the widest range of molded SMT
military components in the industry. With two series: the
CWR09 and the CWR11, AVX meets the requirements of a
majority of military applications.
AVX provides a full range of failure rate levels, termination
finishes and packaging options. We also work closely with
our customers to develop cost effective Source Control
Drawings (SCD) when the tantalum capacitor requirement is
not covered by an existing specification.
The following is a partial list of programs which have
used AVX Tantalum:
F-22
Harpoon
F-16
Apache
JSOW
Sinegar Radio
Paveway
Tow & Towfott

BIDDEFORD SURFACE MOUNT MILITARY/AEROSPACE PRODUCT
AVX Tantalum Division at Biddeford is an ISO 9001 registered
facility offering a wide range of product to address all Military
requirements, being the only manufacturer to offer fully
molded versions of all hybrid and EIA standard form factors.
Based on the core qualifications maintained for CWR09 and
CWR11 product, new products are now available utilizing the
latest advances in tantalum technology, which allow active
downsizing and component count reduction, yet which
incorporate manufacturing in accordance with MIL-PRF-55365
and reliability options from standard to “C” Weibull grading.
A special facility within the plant enables the production of
application specific modules and arrays, providing solutions
for specialized requirements.
CWR19/CWR29 Extended Range/
Low ESR (Proposed)
Built to the same form-factor as CWR09, this series offers
extended capacitance/voltage ratings (currently available by
SCD as the Hi-Rel TAZ series) for ratings from 4-25v. Parts
are suited to hybrid or PCB assembly, while case sizes A to
E offer a low profile (0.050" nom) molded chip configuration.
Reliability levels from standard to “C” Weibull grading are
proposed, along with ambient and high/low temperature
surge options.
A new case size (V case) has been added to extend
capacitance ratings to 470µF; for the large case size (G, H
and V case) the CWR29 offers low ESR (to sub-100mΩ levels)
for critical power supply designs.
CWR09
Fully qualified to MIL-PRF-55365, this series represents the
most flexible of surface mount form factors, offering eight
case sizes to cover the full Capacitance/Voltage range. Parts
are suited to hybrid or PCB assembly, while case sizes A to
E offer a low profile (0.050" nom) molded chip configuration.
Reliability levels from standard to “C” Weibull grading are
available, along with ambient and high/low temperature surge
options. This series is a molded, interchangeable alternative
to CWR06 conformal types, while offering the advantages of
molded body/compliant termination construction, polarity,
capacitance and JAN brand packaging. Parts are ordered by
standard CWR09 part number. The CWR09 series remains
the form factor of choice for most military/aerospace tantalum
applications due to their low profile and volumetric efficiency.
CWR11
Fully qualified to MIL-PRF-55365, this series offers a more
limited range of form factors (4 case sizes, A through D) which
have the advantage of being designed to EIA standard sizes,
using common board layout designs shared with commercial
product. Reliability levels from standard to “C” Weibull
grading are available, along with ambient and high/low
temperature surge options. Parts carry polarity, capacitance
and JAN brand marking and are ordered by standard CWR11
part number.
