Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
Floating Electrode Design (FE-CAP), X7R Dielectric 6.3VDC-250VDC (Commercial & Automotive Grade)
Overview
KEMET’s Floating Electrode (FE-CAP) multilayer ceramic capacitor in X7R dielectric utilizes a cascading internal electrode design configured to form multiple capacitors in series within a single monolithic structure. This unique configuration results in enhanced voltage and ESD performance over standard capacitor designs while allowing for a fail-open condition if mechanically damaged (cracked). If damaged, the device may experience a drop in capacitance but a short is unlikely. The FE-CAP is designed to reduce the likelihood of a low IR or short circuit condition and the chance for a catastrophic and potentially costly failure event. Driven by the demand for a more robust and reliable component, the FE-CAP was designed for critical applications where higher operating temperatures and mechanical stress are a concern. These components are RoHS compliant, meet the requirements of the Automotive Electronics Council's AEC-Q200 and are widely used in automotive circuits as well as power supplies (input and output filters) and general electronic applications. Combined with the stability of an X7R dielectric, the FE-CAP complements KEMET’s “Open Mode” devices by providing a failsafe design optimized for low to mid range capacitance values. These devices exhibit a predictable change in capacitance with respect to time and voltage and boast a minimal change in capacitance with reference to ambient temperature. Capacitance change is limited to ±15% from -55°C to +125°C.

Recommended Soldering Technique: • Solder wave or solder reflow for EIA case sizes 0603, 0805 and 1206 • All other EIA case sizes are limited to solder reflow only Recommended Soldering Profile: • KEMET recommends following the guidelines outlined in IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020
Density Level A: For low-density Product applications. Recommended for wave solder applications and provides a wider process window for reflow solder processes. KEMET only recommends wave soldering of EIA 0603, 0805 and 1206 case sizes. Density Level B: For products with a moderate level of component density. Provides a robust solder attachment condition for reflow solder processes. Density Level C: For high component density product applications. Before adapting the minimum land pattern variations the user should perform qualification testing based on the conditions outlined in IPC standard 7351 (IPC-7351).
