Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
X5R Dielectric, 4VDC-50VDC (Automotive Grade)
Overview
KEMET’s Automotive Grade Series surface mount capacitors in
X5R dielectric are suited for a variety of applications requiring
KEMET’s X5R dielectric features an 85°C maximum operating
temperature and is considered “semi-stable.” The Electronics
reliable operation. Whether under-hood or in-cabin, these devices Components, Assemblies & Materials Association (EIA)
emphasize the vital and robust nature of capacitors required for
mission and safety critical automotive circuits. Stricter testing
protocal and inspection criteria have been established for
automotive grade products in recognition of potentially harsh
environmental conditions . KEMET automotive grade series
capacitors meet the demanding Automotive Electronics Council's
AEC-Q200 qualification requirements and are manufactured in
state of the art ISO/TS 16949:2002 certified facilities.
characterizes X5R dielectric as a Class II material. Components
of this classification are fixed, ceramic dielectric capacitors
suited for bypass and decoupling applications or for frequency
discriminating circuits where Q and stability of capacitance
characteristics are not critical. X5R exhibits a predictable change
in capacitance with respect to time and voltage and boasts
a minimal change in capacitance with reference to ambient
temperature. Capacitance change is limited to ±15% from -55°C
to +85°C.
