AEC-Q200 qualified, 10 µF at 16 V — BOM-fit for automotive boards
It is AEC-Q200 qualified — the automotive passive-component stress-test standard — which means it has passed temperature cycling, moisture resistance, and mechanical shock at the part level, not just the module level.
2000-hour endurance at 125°C — sizing for under-hood thermal duty
The rated lifetime is 2000 hours at 125°C, which is the full-rated temperature — not a derated condition. For a board that sees 105°C ambient with self-heating, the actual lifetime extends beyond 2000 hours per the Arrhenius acceleration typical for tantalum dielectrics. The 125°C ceiling covers under-hood and engine-compartment positions where the ambient can spike during hot soak.
If the load draws higher ripple, the ESR derating curve (available in the series datasheet) governs the safe operating area.
Active production — sourcing for the BOM line
The AEC-Q200 qualification and the molded 1411 package make it a direct drop-in for automotive ECUs and body-control modules.
