Product specification
4C-Array NP0/X7R/Y5V 16 V to 50 V
CONSTRUCTION
The capacitor consists of a rectangular
block of ceramic dielectric in which
a number of interleaved metal
electrodes are contained. This
structure gives rise to a high
capacitance per unit volume.
The inner electrodes are connected
to the two end terminations and
finally covered with a layer of
plated tin (NiSn).
The terminations are lead-free.
An outline of the structure is
shown in Fig.1.

TEST TEST METHOD PROCEDURE REQUIREMENTS
No visual damage
Endurance IEC 60384-
21/22
4.14 1. Preconditioning, class 2 only:
150 +0/-10 °C /1 hour, then keep for
24 ±1 hour at room temp
2. Initial measure:
Spec: refer initial spec C, D, IR
3. Endurance test:
Temperature: NP0/X7R: 125 °C
X5R/Y5V: 85 °C
Specified stress voltage applied for 1,000 hours:
Applied 2.0 x Ur for general product.
Applied 1.5 x Ur for high cap. product.
High voltage series follows with below stress
condition:
Applied 1.3 x Ur for 500V series
Applied 1.2 x Ur for 1KV, 2KV, 3KV series
4. Recovery time: 24 ±2 hours
5. Final measure: C, D, IR
P.S. If the capacitance value is less than the
minimum value permitted, then after the other
measurements have been made the capacitor shall
be precondition according to “IEC 60384 4.1” and
then the requirement shall be met.
