Technical Specifications

Product Categories and Dielectric Materials

Class I Capacitors (COG/NPO)

Characteristics: Highly stable electrical properties, minimal change with temperature, voltage, and time. Low loss.

Applications: Circuits requiring high stability and low loss, such as filters, oscillators, and timing circuits.

Class II Capacitors (X7R, X7S, X7T, X6R, X6S, X6T, X5R)

Characteristics: High dielectric constant, higher capacitance than Class I. Semi-stable temperature characteristics. Suitable for a wide capacitance range.

Applications: Circuits where capacitance range is broad and stability requirements are not as critical, such as DC-blocking, decoupling, bypassing, and frequency discriminating circuits.

Product Structure

The product structure consists of:

1. Ceramic dielectric
2. Inner electrode
3. Outer electrode
4. Nickel layer
5. Tin layer
