About KEMET Corporation (KEMET-YAGEO)

KEMET Corporation traces its roots to 1919 as the electronics division of Union Carbide Corporation, originally producing tantalum capacitor materials in Cleveland, Ohio. Union Carbide spun the business out as an independent public company — KEMET Corporation — in 1990. Headquartered today in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (relocated from Simpsonville, South Carolina), KEMET is one of the world's leading producers of capacitors of every technology — solid tantalum, polymer tantalum (KO-CAP), multilayer ceramic (MLCC), aluminum electrolytic, polymer aluminum, film, and supercapacitors — alongside ferrites, EMI cores, piezoelectric devices, and sensors. In 2020, YAGEO Corporation (Taiwan) completed the acquisition of KEMET for approximately $1.8 billion, making KEMET the core of the YAGEO Group's expanded passive-component lineup alongside YAGEO's own MLCC / chip-resistor business and the earlier Pulse Electronics acquisition. Engineers, buyers, and CEMs still search, spec, and BOM parts under the KEMET brand and legacy KEMET part-number families (T491, T495, T520, T528, T598, C-series MLCC, PEG124, R73, R76, PHE, C4AK, and the NEC-TOKIN inheritance).

KEMET grew through a deep string of passive-component acquisitions that shaped today's portfolio: Arcotronics (2007 — the Italian film-capacitor maker that brought R60 / R66 / R73 / R76 metallized film into the KEMET line), Evox Rifa (2007 — Finnish/Swedish film-capacitor and DC-link specialist), NEC TOKIN (2012 — the massive Japanese acquisition that added solid tantalum, conductive-polymer, aluminum polymer, and supercapacitor (EDLC) technology plus the FT / FMD / FGH supercap families and BellaTech piezo), Cornell Dubilier Motor Capacitor (2015 — AC film / motor-run capacitors), IntelliData (current and thermal sensors), and ESL ElectroScience (2018 — specialty electronic materials and thick-film pastes). Hybrid Electronics has sourced KEMET product since 1995 — long before the YAGEO acquisition, long before the NEC-TOKIN rollup, and long before Arcotronics R73 film became a KEMET part number. Engineers still hunt for parts by the legacy names: older T491 / T495 date-code windows, NEC-branded TOKIN tantalum from before the 2012 KEMET acquisition, original Arcotronics R73 film from before the 2007 rebrand, and older ESL polymer thick-film paste specifications. We source obsolete, hard-to-find, and allocated KEMET / KEMET-YAGEO parts from OEM excess, CEM surplus, and traceable secondary channels when authorized distributors show zero stock or 30+ week lead times.

KEMET product families we source

Our line card spans the KEMET Corporation / KEMET-YAGEO portfolio — from current-production T491 standard tantalum, T528 low-ESR polymer, C-series 0603 / 0805 X7R MLCC, PEG124 screw-terminal aluminum, R73 metallized-film DC-link, and FT-series supercapacitors shipping into automotive, industrial, medical, and telecom programs, to legacy NEC-TOKIN tantalum, pre-KEMET Arcotronics R73 film, older T491 date codes, and Cornell Dubilier motor-run AC film still qualified into legacy motor-drive, HVAC, and mil-aero systems.

Aluminum electrolytic — ESK / ESY / ALS30 / ALS31 / PEG124

ESK / ESY radial through-hole general-purpose (10 V – 450 V), ALS30 / ALS31 / ALS40 snap-in for switch-mode PSU bulk, PEG124 / PEG225 screw-terminal for high-ripple industrial, and ALC10 / ALC70 long-life — the workhorse KEMET aluminum-electrolytic families for power supplies, industrial drives, and welding equipment.

Polymer aluminum — A700 / A701 / A768

A700 polymer aluminum radial-can (NEC-TOKIN heritage), A701 low-height polymer, and A768 hi-ripple polymer aluminum — the OS-CON-alternative family delivering low ESR, high ripple, and no dry-out for enterprise-server VRM, GPU POL, and telecom POE POL rails.

Obsolete & hard-to-find KEMET parts

KEMET Corporation's brand portfolio spans a century of capacitor, ferrite, and passive-component development — from the 1919 Union Carbide tantalum origins through the 2007 Arcotronics / Evox Rifa film-cap rollup, the 2012 NEC-TOKIN acquisition, the 2015 Cornell Dubilier motor-cap deal, and the 2020 YAGEO takeover. Along the way, KEMET rationalized several legacy families and date-code windows that defense, industrial, medical, and legacy telecom BOMs still specify. Hybrid Electronics sources these end-of-life and legacy-branded families from OEM excess, contract-manufacturer surplus, and traceable secondary channels:

Send an RFQ with quantity, target date-code range, and any traceability requirements (COO, MSL, factory sealed, DPAS-rated) — we return same-day availability from stock or an ETA from our sourcing network.

KEMET quote & sourcing FAQ

What KEMET / KEMET-YAGEO products does Hybrid Electronics quote most often?

T491 standard MnO2 tantalum, T495 AEC-Q200 automotive tantalum, T520 / T525 / T528 low-ESR polymer tantalum, T489 / T598 KO-CAP polymer, C-series 0603 / 0805 X7R MLCC, PEG124 screw-terminal aluminum, R73 / R76 metallized-film DC-link, PHE X2 safety film, and FT / FMD / FGH supercapacitors are our highest-volume KEMET quote categories. Legacy NEC-branded TOKIN tantalum, older T491 / T495 date codes, original Arcotronics R73 film, and Cornell Dubilier motor-run AC film are steady low-volume sourcing lines for defense, industrial, HVAC, and legacy telecom customers.

Are KEMET-branded parts still shipping, or has everything moved to KEMET-YAGEO packaging?

Both. YAGEO completed the KEMET acquisition in 2020 and the company is now positioned as the core of the YAGEO Group passive-component lineup, but factory-marked KEMET-branded parts still flow through the channel from earlier production lots — and KEMET continues to publish datasheets, PCNs, and ordering conventions under the legacy KEMET part-number families (T491, T520, T528, T598, C-series, PEG124, R73, A700, PHE, FT, etc.). Hybrid Electronics quotes both original-marked KEMET-branded stock and current KEMET-YAGEO packaging and discloses which you are receiving on the RFQ response.

Can Hybrid Electronics source NEC-TOKIN legacy tantalum and supercapacitors?

Yes. KEMET acquired NEC TOKIN in 2012, absorbing the tantalum, polymer aluminum, supercapacitor (EDLC), and BellaTech piezo product lines. Because Japanese OEM, defense, and industrial-control BOMs frequently still call out original NEC-TOKIN-marked parts, we actively source NEC-branded TOKIN solid-tantalum, TOKIN polymer aluminum (pre-A700 rebrand), and NEC-TOKIN FT / FMD / FGH supercapacitors from OEM excess and CEM surplus. Send us the exact NEC-TOKIN part number and quantity, and we'll cross-reference to the current KEMET T-series or A-series equivalent and quote both original-marked and current-marked stock.

Do you carry Arcotronics / Evox Rifa legacy film capacitors?

Yes. Arcotronics (Italian film-cap maker, R60 / R66 / R73 / R76 metallized film) and Evox Rifa (Finnish/Swedish film / DC-link specialist, PEG124 / PEG225 screw-terminal) were acquired by KEMET in 2007. We source original Arcotronics-marked and Evox Rifa-marked stock for legacy European industrial, welding-equipment, railway-traction, and audio-crossover designs — and cross-reference to the current KEMET R-series and PEG-series numbering on the quote.

Can Hybrid Electronics source Cornell Dubilier motor-run AC film?

Yes. KEMET acquired the Cornell Dubilier Motor Capacitor line in 2015, absorbing the single-phase induction-motor start / run, HVAC compressor, pool-pump, and industrial-fan AC film capacitor product families (oil-filled and dry metallized-polypropylene, 250 – 660 VAC). We source both original Cornell Dubilier-marked and current KEMET-marked motor-run stock for legacy HVAC, pump, and industrial-motor programs.

How fast is your KEMET quote turnaround?

Same day for parts in stock — typically within 2 hours during business hours (9am–6pm ET). Sourced quotes on out-of-stock parts return within 24–48 hours with an availability window. Email sales@hybridelectronics.com or call (407) 542-3995 to open an RFQ.

Is Hybrid Electronics an authorized KEMET Corporation distributor?

No — we're an independent distributor and excess-inventory buyer sourcing from OEM excess, CEM surplus, and traceable secondary channels since 1995.
