High temperature multilayer stacked capacitors offer high temperature reliability
KEMET’s KPS HT Series devices with an X8L dielectric utilize a proprietary lead-frame technology to vertically stack one or two multilayer ceramic chip capacitors (MLCCs) into a single compact surface mount package. The two-chip vertically stacked device offers up to double the capacitance in the same or smaller design footprint, allowing for both component and board space reductions.
Providing up to 10 mm of board flex capability, KPS HT Series capacitors are environmentally friendly and in compliance with RoHS regulations. They are also capable of Pb-Free reflow profiles and provide low ESR and ESL. Utilizing an X8L dielectric, these devices can provide reliable operation up to 150ºC and are well suited for high temperature filtering, bypass and decoupling applications.
Typical markets include alternative energy, industrial/lighting, medical, telecommunications, automotive, and defense and aerospace. KPS HT Series stacked capacitors complement KEMET’s extensive high temperature product portfolio, with capacitance solutions available for extreme temperature applications up to 260ºC.
