Product Checklist
• Do you require a device capable of Pb-free
reflow profiles?
• Do you require advanced protection against
thermal and mechanical stress?
• Is your circuit board subject to high levels
of board flexure during assembly, mounting
or depanelization?
• Does your circuit have integrated current
limitation?
• Does your application have a direct battery
or power source connection?
• Do you prefer a high capacitance ceramic
alternative to tantalum or aluminum
capacitor technologies?
• Do you require a device with high ripple
current capability?
