MLC Chip Capacitors
Basic Construction
A multilayer ceramic (MLC) capacitor is a monolithic block
of ceramic containing two sets of offset, interleaved
planar electrodes that extend to two opposite surfaces of
the ceramic dielectric. This simple structure requires a
considerable amount of sophistication, both in material and
in manufacture, to produce it in the quality and quantities
needed in today’s electronic equipment.
