Product Overview

The X2Y Series Surface-mount ceramic EMI filter capacitors are integrated passive devices (IPD) designed for decoupling and filtering. These components integrate two Y-capacitors and one X-capacitor into a 4-terminal device, offering superior noise cancellation and broadband filtering capabilities up to 10 GHz and beyond. They provide a breakthrough in ceramic multilayer product design, enabling reduced component count, superior performance, and total cost savings in various electronic applications.

Benefits

• Fewer Component in Filtering: One X2Y can replace multiple inductors and/or capacitors
• Superior Performance in Filtering: One X2Y can eliminate both differential and common mode noises
• Fewer Component in Decoupling: Up to 1:7 replacement of MLCC in power delivering system bypass networks
• Superior Performance in Decoupling: Large or small, X2Y components exhibit ultra low ESL
• Total Cost Savings: Assembly cost savings through reduced component count and placement costs
• Board Level Design Advantages: Dramatically reduces via drills, which blocks routing
• Broadband Filtering and Decoupling: X2Y is effective up to 10 GHz and frequencies beyond
• Ultra Low ESL: Noise cancellation within X2Y makes ESL reducing from nanohenry to picohenry levels
• Bypass: Unlike feedthrough capacitors, X2Y is in bypass, so no DC current limitations
• Matched Y-caps: Two tightly matched line to ground capacitors in one device
• Superior Balance: Temperature and voltage variations balanced of two Y-caps
• Aging Reliability: Aging effects are equal on two Y-caps
