NOJA226M006SWJ

Overview

The NOJA226M006SWJ is a low-profile niobium oxide capacitor from the KYOCERA AVX NOJ series, branded as Oxicap. It features a 22 µF capacitance with a ±20% tolerance and a 6.3 VDC rated voltage. The component utilizes a 1206 (3216 metric) surface mount package measuring 3.2 mm in length, 1.6 mm in width, and 1.8 mm in height. Key electrical specifications include an equivalent series resistance of 1.8 Ohms, a leakage current of 2.6 µA, and a ripple current rating of 224 mA. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +105°C.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes niobium oxide technology for high volumetric efficiency compared to traditional tantalum capacitors.
• Designed with a low-profile form factor suitable for space-constrained surface mount applications.
• Provides stable performance across a wide operating temperature range.

Applications

• Portable electronic devices requiring compact power filtering
• Consumer electronics with limited board space
• General-purpose DC-DC converter output filtering

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer datasheet to ensure correct packaging and tape/reel specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation prior to integration. Cross-reference the part number with the latest KYOCERA AVX product announcements to validate availability and manufacturing status.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high capacitance density is required in a 1206 footprint. Compare ESR and ripple current ratings against circuit requirements. Consider thermal management needs given the 105°C maximum operating temperature limit. Evaluate alternative materials if higher voltage derating or different temperature coefficients are necessary.

Part Context

This part belongs to the NOJ series of niobium oxide capacitors, marketed under the Oxicap trademark. It serves as an alternative to solid tantalum capacitors in similar footprints, offering distinct electrical characteristics such as lower ESR in specific configurations and different failure modes. The series is designed for general-purpose surface mount applications.

Replacement Considerations

NOJB226M006RWJ offers identical electrical values but uses a 1210 package. NOJA106M006SWJ provides half the capacitance in the same 1206 footprint. Verify mechanical clearance and soldering profile compatibility before substitution.
