Aluminum Capacitors
Little-Lytic Electrolytics
FEATURES
• Proven dependable performance in the industrial
and electronic equipment with either transistor or
modified electron-tube circuits
• All terminal connections welded, eliminating
possibility of open or intermittent contacts occasionally
found in pressure joints of conventional capacitors
• Superior in size, performance characteristics, shelf life,
construction and reliability
• Metal-encased with clear plastic outer insulating sleeve
• Excellent circuit performance when used as coupling
capacitors
• Minimum drain and long battery life when used in battery
bypass applications
• Better performance under life test than most miniature
aluminum electrolytic capacitors
• Axial lead
• Material categorization: For definitions of compliance

max. at 120 Hz,
depending upon capacitance
After test, capacitance value shall
not have changed by more than ± 20 %,
the equivalent series resistance in ohms
shall not have exceeded 150 % of initial
requirement and the leakage current
shall not have exceeded the
initial requirement.
Maximum DC leakage current at + 25 °C
for all capacitors is 15 μA, except units
in case code DD, which is 15.8 μA.
The capacitance and equivalent series
resistance shall meet the initial
requirements and the DC leakage
current shall not exceed 300 % of the
initial requirement.
