High Voltage MLC Chips
For 600V to 5000V Applications
High value, low leakage and small size are difficult parameters to obtain
incapacitorsforhighvoltagesystems.AVXspecialhighvoltageMLCchip
capacitors meet these performance characteristics and are designed for
applications such as snubbers in high frequency power converters,
resonators in SMPS, and high voltage coupling/dc blocking. These high
voltage chip designs exhibit low ESRs at high frequencies.
Larger physical sizes than normally encountered chips are used to make
high voltage MLC chip products. Special precautions must be taken in
applying these chips in surface mount assemblies. The temperature
gradient during heating or cooling cycles should not exceed 4ºC per
second. The preheat temperature must be within 50ºC of the peak
temperaturereachedbytheceramicbodiesthroughthesolderingprocess.

require protective surface coating to prevent external arcing.
For 1825, 2225 and 3640 sizes, AVX offers leaded version in either
thru-hole or SMT configurations (for details see section on high voltage
leaded MLC chips).

*Note: Terminations with 5% minimum lead (Pb) is available, see pages 100 and 101 for LD style.
Leaded terminations are available, see pages 102-106.
Notes: Capacitors with X7R dielectrics are not intended for applications acrossAC supply mains orAC line filtering with polarity reversal. Contact plant for recommendations.
Contact factory for availability of Termination and Tolerance options for Specific Part Numbers.
** The 3640 Style is not available on 7" Reels.
*** AVX offers nonstandard chip sizes. Contact factory for details.
