Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
ESD, X7R Dielectric, 16 – 250 VDC (Commercial & Automotive Grade)
Capacitor Marking (Optional):
Thesesurfacemountmultilayerceramiccapacitorsare
normallysuppliedunmarked.Ifrequired,theycanbe
marked as an extra cost option. Marking is available
on most KEMET devices, but must be requested using
thecorrectorderingcodeidentier(s).Ifthisoptionis
requested,twosidesoftheceramicbodywillbelaser
markedwitha“K”toidentifyKEMET,followedbytwo
characters(perEIA–198-seetablebelow)toidentifythe
capacitance value. EIA 0603 case size devices are limited
tothe“K”characteronly.
Laser marking option is not available on:
• C0G, ultra stable X8R and Y5V dielectric devices.
• EIA 0402 case size devices.
• EIA0603casesizedeviceswithexibletermination
option.
• KPS commercial and automotive grade stacked
devices.
• X7R dielectric products in capacitance values outlined
below.
