KEMET expands high voltage multilayer ceramic capacitor portfolio
KEMET today announced the expansion of its surface-mount high-voltage multilayer ceramic capacitor portfolio with the addition of the EIA 0603 case size (1608 metric) with C0G temperature characteristics. The company said these devices are the smallest of their kind and offer designers the ability to continue miniaturizing their designs while still maintaining operating voltages up to 1,000 VDC. This release complements the company’s ArcShield X7R 0603 capacitors.
By utilizing patented base-metal electrode (BME) technology, the C0G High Voltage series provides stability with no capacitance change versus DC voltage and negligible capacitance change over temperature. Available in both commercial and automotive grades in standard and flexible termination systems, this series is Pb-free as well as RoHS and REACH compliant.
