ROHM Component Intelligence

Representative ROHM tantalum capacitor records in the supplied data are marked NRND, meaning not recommended for new designs. Engineers should verify whether a part is still preferred for new production before using it in a fresh BOM.

Sometimes, but treat them as functional alternatives until the case size, capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, ESR, temperature range, RoHS status, and qualification requirements have been reviewed.

Start from the design function, then compare electrical limits, package, lifecycle status, compliance, and supplier availability. For semiconductors, also review reference designs, firmware or driver impact, and qualification history.
