kemet corp (KEM) Key Developments

KEMET Corp. Announces New Screw Terminal Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors

KEMET Corp. announced the release of the new ALS60/61 Screw Terminal Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors. KEMET continues to offer flexibility through its electrolytic design service, which means these capacitors can be optimized for a customer's specific application requirements without creating a fully custom design. Typical markets addressed by these new capacitors include alternative energy, industrial lighting, medical, transportation, as well as defense and aerospace.

KEMET Corp. Announces the Release of Three New Tantalum Chip Capacitor Series

KEMET Corp. announced the release of three new series of tantalum chip capacitors: T488 Small Case Substrate Terminal MnO(2), T527 Facedown Polymer, and T529 Small Case Substrate Terminal Polymer. As mobile circuit designs continue to demand a wider range of high performance miniaturized capacitor solutions, KEMET is now releasing these new series to meet these demands. These products are ideal for use in densely populated circuits, such as smart phones and digital cameras, where space restrictions do not allow for larger and more commonly available case sizes. These miniaturized solutions offer the high capacitance values (22uF to 220uF) available in both a standard 2012 (2.0mm x 1.2mm) and 3216 (3.2mm x 1.6mm) EIA case size with maximum package heights of as low as 1.0mm. In addition to offering a small footprint and low profile, advancements in counter-electrode technology and package design have resulted in the lowest ESR values available in the industry for these package sizes. These products offer a very competitive total cost solution in applications that benefit from the exceptional volumetric efficiency of these series. Typical markets include computer/consumer and telecommunications. These devices are well-suited for decoupling and filtering in DC/DC converters to reduce voltage drop in ultrabooks, as well as audio circuits and power management of IC-s in tablets and smart phones. These series complement KEMET's T528 capacitors.

KEMET Corporation Launches New Line of Industrial Grade Safety Disc Capacitors

KEMET Corporation announced the release of the new Radial Through Hole Ceramic Safety Disc Capacitors. Safety Certified capacitors are classified as either X and/or Y capacitors. Class X capacitors are primarily used in line-to-line (across-the-line) applications. In this application there is no danger of electric shock to humans should the capacitor fail, but could result in a risk of fire. The class Y capacitor is primarily used in line-to-ground (line by-pass) applications. In this application, failure of the capacitor could lead to danger of electric shock. Typical markets include alternative energy, industrial/lighting, medical, and telecommunications. The Safety Disc capacitors complement KEMET's ERO610, ERK610, ERP610, KJY, KJN series, and FILM EMI suppression capacitors. Technical information: X1 /Y1: Voltage subclass: certified to withstand impulses up to 4KV (X1) and 8KV (Y1) respectively; X1 /Y2: Voltage subclass: certified to withstand impulses up to 4KV (X1) and 5KV (Y2) respectively.
