Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
Flexible Termination System (FT-CAP), X7R Dielectric, 6.3 – 250 VDC (Commercial Grade)
Soldering Process
Recommended Soldering Technique:
• Solder wave or solder reow for EIA case sizes 0603, 0805 and 1206
• All other EIA case sizes are limited to solder reow only
Recommended Reow Soldering Prole:
The KEMET families of surface mount multilayer ceramic capacitors (SMD MLCCs) are compatible with wave (single or dual),
convection, IR or vapor phase reow techniques. Preheating of these components is recommended to avoid extreme thermal
stress. The KEMET recommended prole conditions for convection and IR reow reect the prole conditions of the IPC/
J-STD-020 standard for moisture sensitivity testing. These devices can safely withstand a maximum of three reow passes
at these conditions.
