Automotive-grade MLCCs

20 March 2013 Passive Components

TDK has expanded its CKG series of ‘megacap’ type MLCCs to include miniature 1608 to 3216 (EIA 0603 to 1206) packages; until now these MLCCs were available only in 3225 to 5750 packages (EIA 1210 to 2220). With dimensions of only 1,9 x 1,3 x 1,5 mm, the new 1608 components are the world’s smallest automotive-grade MLCCs in the megacap class.

The new components have a capacitance of 10 μF and rated voltages from 16 V to 25 V. The high-reliability, automotive-grade MLCCs with lead frames offer enhanced thermal shock and mechanical stress resistance. They are designed for applications in automobiles, base ­stations and wherever highest reliability is essential.

The advanced structural design of the CKG series enables a very wide operating temperature range of -55°C to +150°C and optimal reliability for use in automotive ECUs.
