Product Overview
The T520V107M010ATE018 from KEMET is a 100µF 10V tantalum polymer capacitor from the T520 KO-CAP series. KO-CAP combines the low ESR of MLCCs, the high capacitance of aluminum electrolytics, and the volumetric efficiency of tantalum into a single surface-mount package. The 18mΩ ESR makes this capacitor ideal for high-ripple-current DC-DC converter output and bulk decoupling applications up to 12.8V rails.
