MAL224699909E3 - Vishay

MAL224699909E3 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended land pattern for MAL224699909E3?
  The recommended land pattern for MAL224699909E3 can be found in Vishay's application note AN10365, which provides guidelines for surface-mount assembly of Vishay's aluminum electrolytic capacitors.
• How do I handle the capacitor's polarity during assembly?
  The MAL224699909E3 has a polarity marking on the component. The longer lead is the positive leg, and it should be connected to the positive voltage rail or signal. Improper polarity connection can lead to capacitor failure or even damage to the surrounding circuitry.
• What is the derating curve for this capacitor?
  The derating curve for the MAL224699909E3 can be found in the datasheet, but it's not explicitly stated. However, Vishay provides a general derating curve for their aluminum electrolytic capacitors in their application note AN1003. The curve shows the reduction in capacitance and voltage rating as a function of temperature.
• Can I use this capacitor in a high-vibration environment?
  The MAL224699909E3 is designed for general-purpose use and may not be suitable for high-vibration environments. Vishay recommends using their vibration-resistant capacitors, such as the MAL2 series, for applications that require high reliability in harsh environments.
• What is the ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) of the MAL224699909E3?
  The ESR of the MAL224699909E3 is not explicitly stated in the datasheet. However, Vishay provides a general guideline for ESR values in their application note AN1003. For the MAL224699909E3, the ESR is typically around 100-200 mΩ at 100 kHz and 20°C.
