Molded tantalum in an 0805 footprint
The F381A336MSALZT is a molded tantalum capacitor from the KYOCERA AVX F38 series, packing 33 µF at 10 V into a 2.00 mm × 1.25 mm 0805 case (EIA size code S).
For an existing BOM line, this means the part is still available for production but has no guaranteed long-term supply commitment — a last-time buy or a qualified second source should be on the roadmap. The 1000-hour endurance rating at 85°C is typical for this construction; the actual service life in a 40°C ambient will be longer, but the NRND status is the procurement constraint, not the wear-out.
Rated from -55°C to 105°C, the F381A336MSALZT covers industrial, automotive under-hood, and outdoor telecom enclosures where commercial-grade parts (0°C to 70°C) would fail. The 0805 case and 0.90 mm seated height fit tight-profile designs — think portable instrumentation, sensor modules, or space-constrained power stages.
Sourcing this NRND capacitor
Because the F381A336MSALZT carries NRND status, standard distributor stock may dwindle.
