Capacitors for applications where higher capacitance and voltage are required

15-09-2020 | Mouser Electronics | Passives

KEMET Electronics X7R Capacitors, available now from Mouser, with KONNEKT Technology provide a 66nF to 20µF capacitance range, 25VDC to 1.5kVDC voltage rating, and EIA 1812 case size. The high-density packaging technology offers an innovative Transient Liquid Phase Sintering material that produces a surface-mount, multi-chip solution for high-density packaging. These capacitors are considered to be temperature stable due to the 125C maximum operating temperature and are characterised as a Class II material by the EIA.

These capacitors are fixed, ceramic dielectric capacitors ideal for bypass and decoupling applications or frequency discriminating circuits where Q and stability of capacitance characteristics are not crucial. The device boasts a minimal change in capacitance concerning ambient temperature, and the capacitance change is limited to ±15% from -55C to +125C.

These capacitors are excellent for applications where higher capacitance and voltage are required without the necessity for additional board space. They are also ideal for usage in industries related to automotive (hybrid), aerospace, telecommunications, medical, defence, semiconductors, and test/diagnostic equipment. Also available are automotive-grade devices that satisfy AEC-Q200 requirements.
