AVX, a leading manufacturer of passive components and connectors, has introduced an innovative and highly efficient testing process for its tantalum capacitors. Known as the "Q" testing process, it was showcased at the High Reliability Components Workshop in Biddeford, Maine earlier this year, where it was presented to key players in the military and aerospace industries. The process was also detailed in a technical paper delivered at the CARTS International Conference in Houston, Texas on March 26. Attendees were impressed with the Q test, which is expected to eventually replace traditional Weibull reliability assessments for medical, military, and aerospace-grade tantalum capacitors.
For many years, Weibull analysis has been the standard used to evaluate the reliability of tantalum capacitors, driven by military specifications. However, recent advancements in manufacturing and testing have led to a decline in the effectiveness of the Weibull method. AVX’s Q test process represents a significant step forward in ensuring higher reliability and performance in critical applications.
“AVX is grateful to all the conference participants and appreciates the valuable feedback shared during discussions on the design, manufacturing, and testing of tantalum capacitors,†said Allen Mayar, Product Marketing Manager at AVX. “We are committed to continuously improving the Q test process to deliver optimal performance for mission-critical systems.â€
The Q test process has already been patented and is now available in medical-grade tantalum capacitors with compact packaging. AVX plans to expand the use of the Q test across its military and aerospace product lines by the end of the year, further reinforcing its position as an industry leader in high-reliability components.
Steel pole
Steel poles are commonly used to carry several types of electric power lines, distribution lines and lighting system. Distribution lines carry power from local substations to customers. They generally carry voltages from 4.6 to 33kV for distances up to 30 miles, and include transformers to step the voltage down from the primary voltage to the lower secondary voltage used by the customer. A service drop carries this lower voltage to the customer's premises.
