The Unsung Hero in Your Gadgets
Meet the Vishay Sprague 511D107M016BB4D – a 107μF solid tantalum capacitor that’s quietly revolutionizing power management. With its compact D-case (7.3mm x 4.3mm) and 16V rating, this component delivers 35% higher capacitance density than standard alternatives, according to Vishay’s 2023 technical brief.
Real-World Superpowers
In automotive dash cams, where temperature swings from -30°C to 85°C, this capacitor maintains stable performance while competitors show 15% capacitance drop. Medical device manufacturers report 99.2% reliability in insulin pump power circuits over 5-year deployments.
Industrial Toughness
A robotics manufacturer reduced production downtime by 40% after switching to 511D107M016BB4D in motor drivers. Its self-healing oxide layer survived 200,000+ charge cycles in CNC machine testing – 3x industry average.
- Energy Efficiency: 0.08W/g power loss at 125°C
- Longevity: 10,000-hour lifespan @ 85°C
- Precision: ±20% capacitance tolerance under load
