KEMET Surface Mount Tantalum Capacitor 100µF 16V

The KEMET T491 Series Surface Mount Tantalum Capacitor is an industrial grade MnO2 standard tantalum capacitor designed specifically for modern, highly automated surface mount processes and equipment. It combines solid tantalum technology with advanced materials and automation to deliver reliable performance.

This capacitor meets or exceeds the requirements of EIA standard 535BAAC. It features symmetrical and compliant terminations, alongside halogen-free epoxy that is compliant with UL94 V-0, ensuring safety and environmental considerations are met.

With a capacitance of 100µF and a tolerance of ±10%, this component operates with a DC voltage rating of 16V and an equivalent series resistance (ESR) of 0.7 ohm. It is designed to function reliably across a wide operating temperature range from -55°C to 125°C, making it suitable for demanding environments.

Typical applications for this surface mount capacitor include decoupling and filtering across various end applications, such as DC/DC converters, portable electronics, telecommunications, and control units. The X case size (2917 / 7343 Metric) ensures compatibility with standard footprints.
