A700, A700 Plus Performance, and A720 Aluminum Organic Capacitors

KEMET's A700, A700 Plus Performance, and A720 aluminum organic capacitors (AO-CAP) are solid-state capacitors. The cathode is a conductive organic polymer, which results in very low ESR and improved capacitance retention at a high frequency. AO-CAPs may be operated at steady-state voltages up to100% of rated voltage without the need to de-rate. Since there is no liquid electrolyte, the A700 and A720 offer long operational lifetimes, low ESR, and high operational temperatures. The inherently low ESR renders the A700 and A720 suitable for high ripple current handling. The small package size, high ripple current capability, high operating temperature, low parasitics, and high capacitance make the A700 and A720 ideal for high-performance microprocessor, FPGA, and ASIC decoupling designs. The A700 Plus Performance supports the harsh environmental applications in telecommunications such as base stations in 5G, offering extended +125°C, 3,000 hour life endurance, and storage.
