• High capacitance has been achieved through precision
technologies that enable the use of multiple thinner
ceramic dielectric layers.
• A monolithic structure ensures superior mechanical
strength and reliability.
• High-accuracy automatic mounting is facilitated through
the maintenance of very precise dimensional tolerances.
• Composed of only ceramics and metals, these
capacitors provide extremely dependable performance,
exhibiting virtually no degradation even when subjected to
temperature extremes.
• Low stray capacitance ensures high conformity with
nominal values, thereby simplifying the circuit design
process.
• Low residual inductance assures superior frequency
characteristics.
• Because electrostatic capacity has been obtained up to
the electrolytic capacitor range, these capacitors offer
long service life and are optimally suited for power supply
designs that require high levels of reliability.
• Owing to their low ESR and excellent frequency
characteristics, these products are optimally suited for
high frequency and high-density type power supplies.
Applications •Electronics equipment
•Mobile communications equipment
•Office automation equipment
•Automotive electronics
•Test and measurement equipment
•Hybrid ICs, etc.

Internal Codes
The capacitance is expressed in three digit
codes and in units of pico Farads (pF). The first
and second digits identify the first and second
significant figures of the capacitance. The third
digit identifies the multiplier. R designates a
decimal point.
