Procurement Notes

Verify the specific voltage rating against project requirements, as datasheet variations may exist between 4V and 2.5V variants for this part number family. Confirm package dimensions match the target PCB footprint. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives and check for moisture sensitivity classification prior to reflow soldering processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when higher reliability and lower leakage current are required compared to solid manganese dioxide tantalum alternatives. The niobium oxide construction allows for safe operation under reverse bias conditions, offering design flexibility. Consider the 2312 package size constraints and thermal management needs for the intended application environment.

Part Context

This component belongs to the NOS series of Niobium Oxide capacitors manufactured by KYOCERA AVX. These devices are designed to replace tantalum capacitors in applications demanding higher reliability and safety margins. The Oxicap branding highlights the specific niobium oxide dielectric material used to achieve stable performance across wide temperature ranges.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other niobium oxide capacitors from the same manufacturer with matching capacitance and voltage ratings. Cross-brand replacements require careful evaluation of ESR, physical dimensions, and temperature coefficients to ensure functional equivalence without redesigning the PCB layout.
