CWR MIL-PRF-55365 Tantalum Surface Mount SeriesCWR MIL-PRF-55365 Tantalum Surface Mount Series - KEMET’s CWR Military Tantalum series has historically provided high-reliability performance for defense and aerospace applications. The QPL listed MIL-PRF-55365 product line comes in four styles: CWR09, CWR11, CWR19 and CWR29. Mission critical military systems have come to rely on KEMET Electronics’ family of defense and aerospace capacitors.  More...

T428 Series CapacitorsT428 Series Capacitors - Kemet's high reliability T428 COTS product offers increased power dissipation and enhanced ripple current capability. Its facedown construction provides a broader, more direct path for heat to be dissipated than traditional construction. This series was developed to provide the volumetric efficiency of a conformally coated capacitor in a pick-and-place friendly molded package. The T428 offers the highest capacitance-per-volume of any molded leadframe capacitor.  More...
