This range of multilayer ceramic capacitors from Taiyo Yuden are a reliable solution suitable for high density mounting. The use of nickel as the electrode material and for the plating process improves the heat resistance of the capacitors, prevents migration and improves solderability. Taiyo Yuden MLCCs have a monolithic structure and feature higher insulation resistance and breakdown voltage allowing for greater reliability. Compared to aluminium electrolytic or tantalum capacitors, these multilayer ceramic capacitors maintain a small case size while offering high rated voltage options. This series offers low ESR and excellent noise absorption characteristics.

Taiyo Yuden multilayer ceramic capacitors are suitable for use in general electronics equipment including office automation, household goods and audio visual equipment. Other applications include telecommunication equipment such as PCs, tablets, smartphones and wireless applications. They are also suitable to power supply bypass capacitors in liquid crystal modules and voltage lines alongside LSI, IC, and input and output converters. Taiyo Yuden MLCCs can be used for smoothing capacitor applications with switching power supplies (secondary side) and the input and output for DC-DC converters.

1206 Range

C0G (NP0) is the most popular formulation of the "temperature-compensating", EIA Class I ceramic materials
X7R formulations are called "temperature stable" ceramics and fall into EIA Class II materials
Y5V formulations are for general-purpose use in a limited temperature range.These characteristics make Y5V ideal for decoupling applications
