Kemet Corporation introduced today its T598 High Humidity/High Temperature Series, the first polymer electrolytic capacitor that meets all of the requirements of the Automotive Electronics Council’s AEC-Q200 specification for passive components. Kemet’s new AEC-Q200 qualified T598 KO-CAP® polymer electrolytic capacitor delivers stability and endurance in extreme humidity and temperature environments. Typical applications include decoupling and filtering of dc-dc converters in automotive infotainment and advanced driver assistance, as well as industrial and telecom applications where harsh conditions such as high humidity and temperature are of concern.
