FOUNTAIN INN, SC --(Marketwired - December 14, 2016) - AVX Corporation (
New 3D models for AVX's polymer, tantalum, and niobium oxide capacitors are available free of charge as part of AVX's extensive set of design libraries and tools , and are made available as STEP files to facilitate their use in a variety of different CAD systems.
"3D models are an essential design tool for electronics engineers. By allowing users to simulate component layouts in product designs much more accurately than 2D mockups before investing time and money into prototype manufacturing and testing, 3D CAD drawings help to conserve valuable resources and enable significantly more first-pass design successes. So, we're very pleased to provide our customers with a vastly expanded library of 3D models for our polymer, tantalum, and niobium oxide capacitors," said Chris Reynolds, technical marketing manager at AVX.
