Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
Flexible Termination System (FT-CAP) X7R Dielectric,
6.3 – 250 VDC (Automotive Grade)
Overview
KEMET’s Automotive Grade Flexible Termination (FT-CAP)
multilayer ceramic capacitor in X7R dielectric incorporates
a unique, flexible termination system that is integrated with
KEMET’s standard termination materials. A conductive silver
epoxy is utilized between the base metal and nickel barrier
layers of KEMET’s standard termination system in order
to establish pliability while maintaining terminal strength,
solderability and electrical performance. This technology
was developed in order to address the primary failure mode
of MLCCs– flex cracks, which are typically the result of
excessive tensile and shear stresses produced during board
flexure and thermal cycling. Flexible termination technology
inhibits the transfer of board stress to the rigid ceramic body,
therefore mitigating flex cracks which can result in low IR or
short circuit failures.
Although this technology does not eliminate the potential
for mechanical damage that may propagate during extreme
environmental and handling conditions, it does provide
superior flex performance over standard termination
systems. FT-CAP complements KEMET’s Open Mode,
Floating Electrode (FE-CAP), Floating Electrode with Flexible
Termination (FF-CAP) and KEMET Power Solutions (KPS)
product lines by providing a complete portfolio of flex
mitigation solutions.
Combined with the stability of an X7R dielectric and designed
to accommodate all capacitance requirements, these flex-
robust devices are RoHS-compliant, offer up to 5mm of
flex-bend capability and exhibit a predictable change in
capacitance with respect to time and voltage. Capacitance
change with reference to ambient temperature is limited to
±15% from −55°C to +125°C.
Whether under-hood or in-cabin, these capacitors are designed
to provide reliable performance in mission and safety
critical automotive circuits. Stricter testing protocol 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.
