KO CAP Polymer Capacitors
Tantalum capacitors with polymer cathode systems (sometimes called Polymer Electrolytic Capacitors) have outstanding characteristics that make them the preferred choice, from a technical point of view, for many applications. The technical advantages of tantalum polymer capacitors promise opportunities for designers to deliver superior products to their target markets.

KEMET's Organic Capacitors (KO-CAP) are preferred solutions for applications requiring power loss protection (hold-up) or maximum power efficiency of a circuit when board space is limited.
The KEMET Organic Capacitor (KO-CAP) is a solid electrolytic capacitor with a conductive cathode capable of delivering very low ESR and improved capacitance retention at high frequencies
The T591/T598 High Humidity/High Temperature Polymer Electrolytic series delivers higher capacitance and ESR stability under harsh environmental conditions. Enhancements to the design and selected material upgrades were introduced to deliver 500 hours (T591) or 1,000 hours (T598) at 85°C/85% RH rated voltage and to fully comply with the AEC-Q200 Qualification Testing.
The COTS Polymer Electrolytic offers the same performance advantages as other KO-CAP series with screening options associated with high reliability ("HiRel") applications. These Commerical-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) grade components offer several surge current screening options.
