AVX upgrades tantalum-capacitor modelling tools
An AVX product story
Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Feb 19, 2010
AVX has announced upgrades to its tantalum capacitor simulation and modelling support tools.
Version III of AVX's Spitan software for simulation and modelling of tantalum capacitors includes features such as the effects of temperature and voltage on DCL leakage current.
Equivalent circuits of capacitors with parameter values are given and more than 80 newly released codes have been added.
Spitan III can be freely downloaded and AVX has also developed a library of models of its tantalum capacitors.
Five of the most common case sizes (A, B, C, D, E) are now available in STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product Model Data) format, which is used for data exchange and archiving.
AVX has also updated its Selectcap capacitor-selection programme to include all parts released in 2009.
