Multilayer ceramic capacitor

B37941X

MLSC series

MLSC 0805, 50 V and 100 V

Applications

Applications directly linked to a power source / voltage source and safety relevant application without

(integrated) current limitation. Some examples:

Automotive electronics (e.g. clamp 30, RF filter in small power motors, security control

systems or drive and engine control units)

Power electronics (e.g. DC/DC converter)

Mobile devices with battery / accumulator (e.g. filter at charging set)

Differentiation to Standard Series

Special design of two capacitors serial connected

Usage of the ppb – Level Assurance System

Statistical methods (e.g. six-sigma) for design and process control

Periodical testing for solder shock at 360 °C followed by HALT test

Periodical testing for bending strength by piezo-electric method

Usage of the Weibull method as statistical tool for data analysis

Dynamic test limits for at 100% electrical inspection

100% automatic optical inspection – AOI

An application failure rate (measure: 0 mileage and filed) of 10ppb is achievable.

Suitable for High Temperature Applications with respect to voltage derating

High Temperature Application:

The maximum application temperature might increase 125 °C for the listed MLSC with respect to the

following voltage derating (given in % of the rated voltage). A further reduction of the applied voltage

is recommended as the reliability of MLSC follows an Arrhenius law. In addition a short time

temperature increase up to 175 °C without load is allowed.
