SPECIALIZED TANTALUM CAPACITOR SOURCING & DISTRIBUTION IN CHINA
TANTALUMCORE / Vishay

Vishay tantalum capacitor sourcing

Vishay’s tantalum coverage includes TANTAMOUNT solid tantalum and vPolyTan polymer families. Distinguish MnO₂ from polymer technology and identify the exact family before requesting an offer.

Technology & family context

293D is a molded solid tantalum SMD family for industrial use. T55 is a molded polymer SMD family. A manufacturer cross-reference is a research aid, not approval to substitute in a circuit.

Common procurement difficulties

Termination and packaging codes, temperature-dependent voltage limits and qualification requirements can distinguish similar-looking parts. State the acceptance requirements before committing to a batch.

What to verify

  • Full MPN, technology and manufacturer series
  • Capacitance, rated voltage, tolerance, ESR and leakage test conditions
  • Ripple, derating, temperature, polarity and application requirements
  • Case dimensions, land pattern, terminals and packaging suffix
  • Batch/date-code requirements, source documents and required qualification

Lifecycle & obsolete requirements

Confirm lifecycle at complete-MPN level, including suffix and date of the manufacturer notice. Separate discontinued, not recommended for new designs and temporarily unavailable. Historic documentation is not proof of current production. An alternative requires engineering approval before changing the BOM.

How TantalumCore supports you

We review the requested ordering code and documentation, research possible supply channels and organize offer-specific checks. We can help assemble an alternative comparison; your engineering team approves suitability. Quantity, price, source evidence and delivery require confirmation in a written offer.
