This document describes the performance characteristics of ceramic molded axial and radial capacitors produced by KEMET Electronics Corporation. These capacitors have different working voltages, temperature characteristics, and capacitance tolerances. The capacitors are constructed with a monolithic block of ceramic dielectric and interdigitated internal electrodes, and they have excellent insulation and high-temperature resistance.
This document provides detailed performance characteristics for KEMET ceramic molded axial and radial capacitors of the C0G (NP0) and X7R series. It covers electrical parameters such as working voltage, capacitance tolerance, dissipation factor, insulation resistance, and dielectric withstanding voltage, as well as environmental test requirements like moisture resistance and solderability.
Packaging information is also included, describing tape‑and‑reel formats for both axial and radial leaded parts, dimensions, lead sizes, and reel quantities. The data is intended for designers and selectors of electronic components.
