EKMH101VSN472MA50S Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended soldering temperature and time for this capacitor?
  The recommended soldering temperature is 260°C (500°F) for 3 seconds or less, and 240°C (464°F) for 5 seconds or less. It's essential to follow the soldering profile recommended by Chemi-Con to prevent damage to the capacitor.
• Can I use this capacitor in a high-vibration environment?
  Yes, the EKMH101VSN472MA50S is designed to withstand vibrations up to 10Hz to 200Hz, 1.5mm double amplitude, according to IEC 60068-2-6. However, it's recommended to consult with Chemi-Con or a qualified engineer to ensure the capacitor meets the specific vibration requirements of your application.
• How does the capacitor's ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) affect its performance?
  The ESR of the EKMH101VSN472MA50S is 0.05Ω at 100kHz, which is relatively low. A low ESR ensures that the capacitor can handle high-frequency switching and reduces energy losses, making it suitable for high-reliability applications.
• Is this capacitor suitable for use in high-temperature environments?
  The EKMH101VSN472MA50S has a maximum operating temperature of 125°C (257°F), making it suitable for high-temperature applications. However, the capacitor's lifespan and performance may degrade at elevated temperatures, so it's essential to consult with Chemi-Con or a qualified engineer to ensure the capacitor meets the specific temperature requirements of your application.
• Can I use this capacitor in a humid or moist environment?
  The EKMH101VSN472MA50S has a moisture resistance rating of 85°C, 85% RH, 1000 hours, according to IEC 60068-2-78. While it can withstand some humidity, it's recommended to take precautions to prevent moisture ingress and ensure the capacitor is properly sealed or coated to maintain its performance and reliability.
