T496C156K016ATE2K0

The T496 Series of tantalum chip capacitors offers a "fail safe"" design. The built-in fuse element offers excellent protection from damaging short circuit conditions in applications where damaging high fault currents exist. Protection from costly circuit damage due to reversed installation is offered with this device. This series is classified as MSL (Moisture Sensitivity Level) 1 under J STD 020: unlimited floor life time at =30°C/85% RH"
