BCcomponents Product specification
Leaded ceramic multilayer
capacitors Mono-axialTM series
FEATURES
High capacitance per unit volume
Low cost.
APPLICATIONS
These conformally coated axial leaded
capacitors are designed for
commercial and industrial
applications in four dielectrics,
NP0 (ultra-stable), X7R (stable) and
Z5U, Y5V (general purpose).
Applications include timing,
coupling/decoupling, signal
comparison and biasing.
Mono-axial™ capacitors are suitable
for automatic insertion equipment.
DESCRIPTION
The basic capacitor construction
consists of ceramic dielectric materials
processed into a tape
with a typical thickness range
from 0.025 to 0.076 mm. Metal
electrode patterns are applied using a
thick film screening pr ocess. Multiple
layers are stacked and laminated in
such a manner that electrodes are
alternately exposed when the pattern is
cut int o in di v id u al chip cap ac itors.
The capacitors are fired through a high
temperature pro file to matu re the
ceramic and metal into a
homogeneous unit.
Metal end terminations are applied
and fired to provide electrical
connection between the individual
layers. Tinned leads are attached using
a solder. Encapsulation consists of a
moisture resistant gold colou r
conformal epoxy coating that meets
th e f lam e requirements of “UL94V-0”.
