Especially electrolytic capacitors have been continuously improved to achieve low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) values as well as low leakage current properties. This technology is limited to its ESR values. A combination of electrolytic and polymer unifies the advantages of both.</div><div class="" style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</div><div class="" style="margin:0;vertical-align:baseline;">The Panasonic newly developed hybrid technology (introduced as V-ZA series) brings together <span><strong>low ESR </strong></span>characteristics of the specialty polymer capacitor and the <span><strong>low leakage current </strong></span>of aluminum electrolytic capacitors. The V-ZA series shows a <span><strong>compact</strong></span> design, <span><strong>high reliability</strong></span> of the specialty polymer capacitor and the <span><strong>safety </strong></span>of the aluminum electrolytic capacitor.</div><div class="" style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</div><div class="" style="margin:0;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Features for your application:</span></div><div class="" style="margin:0;vertical-align:baseline;"><strong>Downsizing and weight reduction</strong></div><div class="" style="margin:0;vertical-align:baseline;">ESR values equivalent to specialty polymer capacitors</div><div class="" style="margin:0;vertical-align:baseline;">ESR reduction up to 90 % compared to aluminum electrolytic capacitors</div><div class="" style="margin:0;vertical-align:baseline;">Reduction of mounting space area up to 60 % compared to aluminum electrolytic capacitors.</div><div class="" style="margin:0;vertical-align:baseline;"><strong>Power saving and stabilization of operation</strong></div><div class="" style="margin:0;vertical-align:baseline;">Leakage current values are equivalent to aluminum electrolytic capacitors.
