High Voltage X7R FT-CAPs

KEMET High Voltage with Flexible Termination (HV FT-CAP) surface mount MLCCs in X7R dielectric address flex cracking, the primary failure mode of MLCCs, which is typically the result of excessive tensile and shear stresses produced during board flexure and thermal cycling. The HV FT-CAPs from KEMET offer a voltage range from 500V_DC to 3000V_DC and low leakage current, exhibit low ESR at high frequencies, and are used as snubbers or filters in applications such as switching power supplies and lighting ballasts. Combined with the stability of an X7R dielectric and designed to accommodate all capacitance requirements, the flex-robust HV FT-CAPs are RoHS compliant, offer up to 5mm of flex-bend capability, and exhibit a predictable change in capacitance with respect to time and voltage.  These devices offer industry-leading CV values, offering a capacitance range from 130pF to 0.33µF and an operating temperature range from -55°C to +125°C.
