The recommended land pattern for IDC2512ER220M is a rectangular pad with a size of 2.5mm x 1.2mm, with a solder mask clearance of 0.2mm. It's essential to follow the recommended land pattern to ensure proper soldering and to prevent thermal issues.
While IDC2512ER220M is a high-performance capacitor, it's not specifically designed for high-frequency applications. For frequencies above 100 kHz, it's recommended to use capacitors with lower ESL (Equivalent Series Inductance) and higher SRF (Self-Resonant Frequency). However, if you still want to use IDC2512ER220M, ensure that you carefully evaluate its performance in your specific application.
The IDC2512ER220M has a voltage derating curve that indicates the maximum allowed voltage at different temperatures. To handle voltage derating, ensure that you operate the capacitor within the recommended voltage and temperature ranges. For example, at 125°C, the maximum allowed voltage is 150V, which is 75% of the rated voltage. Always check the datasheet for the specific derating curve.
The ESR of IDC2512ER220M is not explicitly stated in the datasheet. However, according to Vishay's capacitor selection guide, the ESR of similar capacitors in the same series is around 10-20 mΩ. Keep in mind that ESR can vary depending on the frequency and operating conditions. If you need an exact ESR value, contact Vishay's support or consult their application notes.
Yes, the IDC2512ER220M is compatible with lead-free soldering. Vishay Intertechnologies ensures that their capacitors meet the requirements for lead-free soldering, as specified in the RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) directive. However, it's essential to follow the recommended soldering profile and temperature to prevent damage to the capacitor.
