TANCERAM® chip capacitors can replace tantalum capacitors
in many applications and offer several key advantages over
traditional tantalums. Because TANCERAM® capacitors exhibit
extremely low ESR, equivalent circuit performance can often be
achieved using considerably lower capacitance values. Low
DC leakage reduces current drain, extending the battery life of
portable products. TANCERAM® high DC breakdown voltage
ratings offer improved reliability and eliminate large voltage
de-rating common when designing with tantalums.
