This structure gives rise to a high capacitance per unit volume. The inner electrodes are connected to the two terminations, either by silver palladium (AgPd) alloy in the ratio 65 : 35, or silver dipped with a barrier layer of plated nickel and finally covered with a layer of plated tin (NiSn). A cross section of the structure is shown in Fig.1.

HIGH FREQUENCY BEHAVIOUR OF CERAMIC MULTILAYER CAPACITORS Because of the inductance L, associated with the CMC, there will be a frequency at which the inductive reactance will be equal to the reactance of the capacitor. Ceramic multilayer capacitors (CMC) are suitable for use at high frequencies. At frequencies below the series resonance frequency, the CMC can be represented by an equivalent circuit as shown in Fig.16. This is known as the series resonance frequency (SRF) and is given by: 1 SRF = ------------------2 LC In general, the quantities C, ESR and L are frequency dependent. For most applications, C and L can be regarded as frequency independent below 1 GHz. At the SRF, the CMC will appear as a small resistor. The transmission loss through the CMC at this series resonance frequency will be low. The equivalent series self-inductance L is: * Independent of the dielectric material. Using the values of C, L = 1 nH and the ESR at a specific frequency (f), two often used quantities can be derived. * Dependent on the size of the capacitor, it increases with increasing length and decreases with increasing width or thickness of the product. The impedance (Z) is given by: - ( 2f )2 LC Z = 1 ------------------------------------ + E SR 2jfC * The value of L is approximately: - 0.6 nH for case size 0603 The quality factor (Q) is given by: - 1 nH for case sizes 0805, 1206 and 1210 1 - ( 2f ) 2 LC Q = -------------------------------------2fESRC - 1.5 nH for case sizes 1812. These figures are accurate to within 20%. 2000 Sep 11 15
