KEMET Electrical/Physical Characteristics
X7R 0805 - 1812 ± 5%, ±10%, ± 20% - 55°C to +125°C 1,000 pF – 6.8 µF16 – 200 V
0603 - 1812X7R ± 5%, ± 10%, ± 20% - 55°C to +125°C 180 pF – 0.22 µF6.3 – 250 V
Features & Benefits
• Fail open electrode designs
• Low to high capacitance flex mitigation
• Flex mitigation technology inside the chip
and in the termination area
• Provides protection against a low IR or short
circuit condition
• Superior flex performance (up to 5 mm)
• Pb-Free and RoHS compliant
Product Checklist
• Is this a critical and safety relevant circuit?
• Is your circuit board subject to high levels
of board flexure during assembly, mounting
or depanelization?
• Are you placing MLCCs close to the edges
or corners of your board?
• Are MLCCs being placed near or around
connectors or heavy components?
• Do you require a case size smaller than
EIA 0603?
• Is mechanical or thermal stress a concern in
your application?
• Is your application commercial or automotive?
• What are your capacitance requirements?
