Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs) Floating Electrode Design with Flexible Termination System (FF-CAP), X7R Dielectric, 6.3 250 VDC (Commercial & Automotive Grade) Overview KEMETs Floating Electrode with Flexible Termination capacitor product lines by providing an ultimate fail-safe design optimized (FF-CAP) combines two existing KEMET technologies Floating for low to mid range capacitance values. These devices exhibit a Electrode and Flexible Termination. The floating electrode predictable change in capacitance with respect to time and voltage component utilizes a cascading internal electrode design and boast a minimal change in capacitance with reference to configured to form multiple capacitors in series within a single ambient temperature. Capacitance change is limited to 15% from monolithic structure. This unique configuration results in -55C to +125C. enhanced voltage and ESD performance over standard capacitor designs while allowing for a fail-open condition if mechanically In addition to Commercial Grade, Automotive Grade devices damaged (cracked). The flexible termination component utilizes are available which meet the demanding Automotive Electronics a conductive silver epoxy between the base metal and nickel Council s AECQ200 qualification requirements. barrier layers of KEMETs standard termination system in order to establish pliability while maintaining terminal strength, solderability and electrical performance. Both technologies 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. Although neither technology can eliminate the potential for mechanical damage that may propagate during extreme environmental and/or handling conditions, the combination of these two technologies provide the ultimate level of protection against a low IR or short circuit condition.
