MLCC - Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors

This document outlines the specifications for Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCCs). It covers standard numbers, structure, ordering codes, general-purpose types, class I (temperature compensating) and class II (high dielectric constant) capacitors, test specifications, package types, and other relevant information. The MLCCs are designed for various applications requiring stable capacitance, tight tolerances, and good frequency performance.

Product Attributes

• Brand: MLCC (Implied by product name)
• Certifications: RoHS compliant, Halogen Free (for Class I)

Technical Specifications

Class I: Temperature Compensating Type - C0603NP0 Series (EIA0201)

Class I: Temperature Compensating Type - Features and Applications

• Features: Ultra-stable capacitance, tight tolerance availability, Low ESR (within 800MHz), good frequency performance, no aging of capacitance.
• Applications: LC and RC tuned circuits, filtering, timing.

Product Overview

The MLCCs are categorized into Class I (Temperature Compensating) and Class II (High Dielectric Constant) types. Class I NP0 capacitors offer exceptional stability and are suitable for precise applications like tuned circuits and timing. Class II capacitors, including X5R, X6S, X7R, X7S, X7T, X7U, and Y5V series, provide higher capacitance values in smaller footprints with varying temperature and voltage characteristics.
