CEI EN 60384-3 PDF

This part of IEC 60384 applies to fixed tantalum electrolytic surface mount capacitors with solid (MnO₂) electrolyte primarily intended for d.c. applications for use in electronic equipment.

These capacitors are primarily intended for use in electronic equipment to be mounted directly on substrates for hybrid circuits or to printed boards.

Capacitors for special-purpose applications may need additional requirements.

The following two styles are considered:

– Style 1: Capacitors protected with external materials;

– Style 2: Capacitors unprotected with external materials.

Object

The object of this standard is to prescribe preferred ratings and characteristics and to select from IEC 60384-1:2016 the appropriate quality assessment procedures, tests and measuring methods and to give general performance requirements for this type of capacitor. Test severities and requirements prescribed in detail specifications referring to this sectional specification should be of equal or higher performance level, because lower performance levels are not permitted.
