High Temperature MLCCs
AT Series – 200ºC & 250°C Rated
Present military specifications, as well as a majority of commercial applications, require a maximum operating
temperature of 125°C. However, the emerging market for high temperature electronics demands capacitors
operating reliably at temperatures beyond 125°C. AVX’s high temperature chip capacitor product line, has been
extended with the BME C0G chip. All AT chips have verified capabilities of long term operation up to 250°C
for applications in both military and commercial businesses. These capacitors demonstrate high volumetric
efficiency, high insulation resistance and low ESR/ESL for the most demanding applications, such as “down-
hole” oil exploration and aerospace programs.
