KEMET 1632 series ceramic capacitor arrays are 1206 monolithic structures with four individual capacitors, saving board and inventory space, less costly, easier to handle and solder than 4 smaller chips.
The KEMET 1632 Ceramic Chip Array integrates four individual capacitors into a single 1206‑size monolithic package, reducing board space and simplifying assembly. It is offered in multiple dielectric types (C0G, X7R, Y5V) with selectable voltage ratings and tolerance codes.
The document provides detailed mechanical drawings, capacitance coding, voltage options, tolerance specifications, temperature characteristics, and packaging information for tape‑and‑reel handling, including reel dimensions and tape specifications.
