Designed for use in portable electronics, T528 Series KO-CAPs are offered in I-Case (3.2 x 1.6 x 1.0 mm) and M-Case (3.5 x 2.8 x 1.5 mm) sizes. Former delivers values from 100 µF @ 3 V to 33 µF @ 10 V and ESR offerings from 150-200 mW, while latter offers values from 330 µF @ 3 V to 100 µF at 10 V with ESR offerings from 150-200 mW. Both can be used for decoupling and filtering in power management applications where space is limited.

KEMET Expands Small Case Size Product Offerings with the T528 Series KO-CAP Polymer Capacitors
Greenville, South Carolina (May 31, 2007) - In its continuing commitment to lead the industry in capacitor technology, KEMET Corporation (NYSE:KEM) today announces the release of two new small case size polymer capacitors.
KEMET's capacitor technology remains a key component of the portable consumer electronics market as circuit designers continue to demand smaller case sizes with the same functionality as components with more than twice the volumetric size. To meet this demand, KEMET has implemented advancements in its KO-CAP Polymer Capacitor design that allow for increased volumetric efficiency within the component, resulting in more than a 100% gain in active area.
When these advancements in design were combined with the KO-CAP advanced polymer processing system, the results yielded the highest capacitance-to-case-size offering available in the industry today and the lowest ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) available anywhere.
Designated as the T528 Series, these new releases are available in the low-profile I-Case size (3.2mm x 1.6mm x 1.0mm) and M-Case (3.5mm x 2.8mm x 1.5mm). The I-Case is available in values from 100 microfarads at 3 volts to 33 microfarads at 10 volts with ESR offerings from 150 to 200 milliohms. The M-Case size is available in values from 330 microfarads at 3 volts to 100 microfarads at 10 volts with ESR offerings from 150 to 200 milliohms.
"The release of these new product offerings continues to strengthen KEMET's position in the portable electronics arena. It further demonstrates our commitment to meeting our customers' continuing drive to maximize functionality while minimizing size," says Susan Barkal, Director, Product Line Management, Tantalum, Polymer and Aluminum Capacitors.
"These latest releases have already been well received by the mobile phone and MP3 design community with major design wins occurring prior to our official release date," says Jayson Young, Technical Product Line Manager, Tantalum, Polymer, and Aluminum Capacitors. "We are very pleased with the responses we've received from customers who have evaluated these new products."
KO-CAPs are commonly used for decoupling and filtering in power management applications where space is restricted (cell phones, PC notebooks, digital cameras, music players and flat panel displays). KEMET has been manufacturing polymer capacitors since 1999.
KEMET Corporation applies world-class service and quality to deliver industry-leading, high-performance capacitance solutions to its customers around the world. KEMET offers the world's most complete line of surface-mount and through-hole capacitor technologies across tantalum, ceramic, aluminum, film and paper dielectrics. KEMET's common stock is listed on The New York Stock Exchange under the symbol KEM. Additional information can be found at http://www.kemet.com.
