ERG5SJ473 - Panasonic

ERG5SJ473 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended soldering temperature profile for ERG5SJ473?
  Panasonic recommends a soldering temperature profile with a peak temperature of 260°C (500°F) for 10-30 seconds, with a ramp-up rate of 2-3°C/s and a ramp-down rate of 3-5°C/s.
• Can ERG5SJ473 capacitors be used in high-vibration applications?
  Yes, ERG5SJ473 capacitors are designed to withstand high vibrations and are suitable for use in applications with vibration levels up to 10G (98m/s²). However, it's recommended to consult with Panasonic's application engineers for specific vibration testing and validation.
• How do I handle and store ERG5SJ473 capacitors to prevent damage?
  ERG5SJ473 capacitors should be stored in a dry, clean environment with a temperature range of -10°C to 40°C (14°F to 104°F) and humidity below 70%. Handling should be done with anti-static wrist straps or mats to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage.
• What is the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of ERG5SJ473 capacitors?
  The ESR of ERG5SJ473 capacitors varies depending on the frequency and temperature. At 100 kHz and 20°C (68°F), the typical ESR is around 0.05 ohms. For more detailed information, consult Panasonic's application notes or contact their technical support.
• Can ERG5SJ473 capacitors be used in high-temperature applications above 125°C (257°F)?
  No, ERG5SJ473 capacitors are not designed for use in high-temperature applications above 125°C (257°F). Operating temperatures above the rated maximum can lead to reduced lifespan, increased leakage current, and potentially catastrophic failure.
