Greetings:

Hi and welcome to the September issue of 1st Alert.

This month we are making you aware of new product additions and expansions of values in our Tantalum capacitors.  We are announcing added Tantalum values in our Low ESR series (TCR) featuring additions in the 25V and 35V voltage offerings in the 33uF-68uF capacitor ranges.  Please see below for details.

Additionally, we are introducing an ECD (Electrical Characteristics Data) for our newly added 22uF with a 16V volt rating in the 1206 case size.

Also, please stay tuned for next month's issue as we release the NP0/C0G vs. Film Capacitor comparison chart that we announced last month. It briefly outlines the major design and electrical characteristic differences between the two types of components. I believe it to be a brief but comprehensive outline and comparison. If you would like an advance copy, send me an email: nathan_bailey@venkel.com

As always, thanks for reading...and remember, engineers make the world go 'round!

Sincerely,

Nathan Bailey
