Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
Flexible Termination System (FT-CAP), Ultra-Stable X8R
Dielectric, 25 – 100 VDC (Commercial & Automotive Grade)
Overview
KEMET’s Flexible Termination (FT-CAP) Multilayer Ceramic
Capacitor in Ultra-Stable X8R dielectric incorporates a unique,
flexible termination system that is integrated with KEMET’s
standard termination materials. A conductive silver epoxy is
utilized between the base metal and nickel barrier layers of
KEMET’s standard termination system in order to establish
pliability while maintaining terminal strength, solderability and
electrical performance. This technology was developed in order
to 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.
Flexible termination technology inhibits the transfer of board
stress to the rigid ceramic body, therefore mitigating flex cracks
which can result in low IR or short circuit failures.
Although this technology does not eliminate the potential
for mechanical damage that may propagate during extreme
environmental and handling conditions, it does provide superior
flex performance over standard termination systems.FT-CAP
complements KEMET’s Open Mode, Floating Electrode (FE-
CAP), Floating Electrode with Flexible Termination (FF-CAP),
and KEMET Power Solutions (KPS) product lines by providing a
complete portfolio of flex mitigation solutions.
Combined with the stability of KEMET’s Ultra-Stable high
temperature dielectric technology, these flex-robust devices
are RoHS Compliant, offer up to 5 mm of flex-bend capability
and feature a 150°C maximum operating temperature. Ultra-
Stable X8R dielectric offers the same temperature capability as
conventional X8R but without the capacitance loss due to applied
DC voltage. These devices exhibit no change in capacitance with
respect to voltage and boast a minimal change in capacitance
with reference to ambient temperature. They are also suitable
replacements for higher capacitance and larger footprint devices
that fail to offer capacitance stability. Capacitance change with
respect to temperature is limited to ±15% from -55°C to +150°C.
In addition to Commercial Grade, Automotive Grade devices
are available which meet the demanding Automotive Electronics
Council's AEC-Q200 qualification requirements.

Parameters/Characteristics
To obtain IR limit, divide MΩ-µF value by the capacitance and compare to GΩ limit. Select the lower of the two limits.
Capacitance and dissipation factor (DF) measured under the following conditions:
1 MHz ±100 kHz and 1.0 ±0.2 Vrms if capacitance ≤ 1,000 pF
1 kHz ±50 Hz and 1.0 ±0.2 Vrms if capacitance > 1,000 pF
Note: When measuring capacitance it is important to ensure the set voltage level is held constant. The HP4284 and Agilent E4980 have a feature known as
Automatic Level Control (ALC). The ALC feature should be switched to "ON."
