Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. announced the launch of the new TM8 series high reliability surface mount tantalum capacitors as low as 200nA ultra-low DC leakage current (DCL). DC leakage in early medical equipment platforms, just a decent level, but now requires a lower DC leakage. By using Vishay unique multi Array Package (MAP), the new TM8 devices significantly reduce the DC leakage current, and to achieve a better stability. With patent MAP assembly technology, TM8 capacitors in these
