Suface-mount ceramic capacitors

Kemet has announced the expansion of its surface-mount, multilayer ceramic capacitor product portfolio in C0G dielectric with the addition of over 80 first-to-market part types. Capacitance values have been extended in 10, 16, 25, 50 and 100 Volt rated EIA 0402, 0603, 0805, 1206, and 1210 case sizes and include capacitance tolerance offerings of F(±1%), G(±2%), J(±5%), K(±10%) and M(±20%). With an operating temperature range of between -55°C and +125°C, and with capacitance shift limited to ±30ppm/ °C over that range, these devices are a choice for audio applications. They are designed to provide circuit functions of critical timing and tuning-in applications, including mobile communications, automotive electronics, and power supply circuits. These products exhibit no piezoelectric properties as well as no capacitance change with respect to applied rated DC voltage or time. All parts are environmentally friendly, in compliance with RoHS legislation and are being offered in both commercial and automotive grades with 100% pure matte tin-plated terminations that allow for excellent solderability.
