1. Circuit Design
Precautions
Verification of operating environment, electrical rating and performance
1. A malfunction of equipment in fields such as medical, aerospace, nuclear control, etc. may cause serious harm to human life or have severe social ramifications.
Therefore, any capacitors to be used in such equipment may require higher safety and reliability, and shall be clearly differentiated from them used in general pur-
pose applications.
Operating Voltage Verification of Rated voltage
1. The operating voltage for capacitors must always be their rated voltage or less.
If an AC voltage is loaded on a DC voltage, the sum of the two peak voltages shall be the rated voltage or less.
For a circuit where an AC or a pulse voltage may be used, the sum of their peak voltages shall also be the rated voltage or less.
2. Even if an applied voltage is the rated voltage or less reliability of capacitors may be deteriorated in case that either a high frequency AC voltage or a pulse voltage
having rapid rise time is used in a circuit.
2. PCB Design
Precautions
Pattern configurations Design of Land-patterns
1. When capacitors are mounted on PCBs, the amount of solder used size of fillet can directly affect the capacitor performance. Therefore, the following items must
be carefully considered in the design of land patterns:
1Excessive solder applied can cause mechanical stresses which lead to chip breaking or cracking. Therefore, please consider appropriate land-patterns for proper
amount of solder.
2When more than one component are jointly soldered onto the same land, each component's soldering point shall be separated by solder-resist.
Pattern configurationsCapacitor layout on PCBs
After capacitors are mounted on boards, they can be subjected to mechanical stresses in subsequent manufacturing processes PCB cutting, board inspection,
mounting of additional parts, assembly into the chassis, wave soldering of the boards, etc.. For this reason, land pattern configurations and positions of capacitors
shall be carefully considered to minimize stresses.
Technical
consider-
ations
Pattern configurations Design of Land-patterns
The following diagrams and tables show some examples of recommended land patterns to prevent excessive solder amounts.

Precautions on the use of Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors
2. PCB Design
Technical
consider-
ations
Pattern configurationsCapacitor layout on PCBs
1-1. The following is examples of good and bad capacitor layouts ; capacitors shall be located to minimize any possible mechanical stresses from board warp or de-
flection.
Items Not recommended Recommended
Deflection of board
1-2. The amount of mechanical stresses given will vary depending on capacitor layout. Please refer to diagram below.
1-3. When PCB is split, the amount of mechanical stress on the capacitors can vary according to the method used. The following methods are listed in order from
least stressful to most stressful: push-back, slit, V-grooving, and perforation. Thus, please consider the PCB, split methods as well as chip location.
3. Mounting
Precautions
Adjustment of mounting machine
1. When capacitors are mounted on PCB, excessive impact load shall not be imposed on them.
2.Maintenance and inspection of mounting machines shall be conducted periodically.
Selection of Adhesives
1. When chips are attached on PCBs with adhesives prior to soldering, it may cause capacitor characteristics degradation unless the following factors are appro-
priately checked : size of land patterns, type of adhesive, amount applied, hardening temperature and hardening period. Therefore, please contact us for further
information.
Technical
consider-
ations
Adjustment of mounting machine
1. When the bottom dead center of a pick-up nozzle is too low, excessive force is imposed on capacitors and causes damages. To avoid this, the following points
shall be considerable.
1 The bottom dead center of the pick-up nozzle shall be adjusted to the surface level of PCB without the board deflection.
2 The pressure of nozzle shall be adjusted between 1 and 3 N static loads.
3 To reduce the amount of deflection of the board caused by impact of the pick-up nozzle, supporting pins or back-up pins shall be used on the other side of the
PCB. The following diagrams show some typical examples of good and bad pick-up nozzle placement:
Items Not recommended Recommended
Single-sided
mounting
Double-sided
mounting
2. As the alignment pin is worn out, adjustment of the nozzle height can cause chipping or cracking of capacitors because of mechanical impact on the capacitors.
To avoid this, the monitoring of the width between the alignment pins in the stopped position, maintenance, check and replacement of the pin shall be conducted
periodically.
Selection of Adhesives
Some adhesives may cause IR deterioration. The different shrinkage percentage of between the adhesive and the capacitors may result in stresses on the capaci-
tors and lead to cracking. Moreover, too little or too much adhesive applied to the board may adversely affect components. Therefore, the following precautions
shall be noted in the application of adhesives.
1Required adhesive characteristics
a. The adhesive shall be strong enough to hold parts on the board during the mounting & solder process.
b. The adhesive shall have sufficient strength at high temperatures.
c. The adhesive shall have good coating and thickness consistency.
d. The adhesive shall be used during its prescribed shelf life.
e. The adhesive shall harden rapidly.
f . The adhesive shall have corrosion resistance.
g. The adhesive shall have excellent insulation characteristics.
h. The adhesive shall have no emission of toxic gasses and no effect on the human body.
2The recommended amount of adhesives is as follows;

Precautions on the use of Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors
4. Soldering
Precautions
Selection of Flux
Since flux may have a significant effect on the performance of capacitors, it is necessary to verify the following conditions prior to use;
1Flux used shall be less than or equal to 0.1 wt% in CI equivalent of halogenated content. Flux having a strong acidity content shall not be applied.
2When shall capacitors are soldered on boards, the amount of flux applied shall be controlled at the optimum level.
3When water-soluble flux is used, special care shall be taken to properly clean the boards.
Soldering
Temperature, time, amount of solder, etc. shall be set in accordance with their recommended conditions.
Sn-Zn solder paste can adversely affect MLCC reliability.
Please contact us prior to usage of Sn-Zn solder.
Technical
consider-
ations
Selection of Flux
1-1. When too much halogenated substance Chlorine, etc. content is used to activate ux, or highly acidic ux is used, it may lead to corrosion of terminal elec-Chlorine, etc. content is used to activate ux, or highly acidic ux is used, it may lead to corrosion of terminal elec-Chlorine, etc. content is used to activate ux, or highly acidic ux is used, it may lead to corrosion of terminal elec- content is used to activate ux, or highly acidic ux is used, it may lead to corrosion of terminal elec- content is used to activate flux, or highly acidic flux is used, it may lead to corrosion of terminal elec-
trodes or degradation of insulation resistance on the surfaces of the capacitors.
1-2. Flux is used to increase solderability in wave soldering. However if too much flux is applied, a large amount of flux gas may be emitted and may adversely affect
the solderability. To minimize the amount of flux applied, it is recommended to use a flux-bubbling system.
1-3. Since the residue of water-soluble flux is easily dissolved in moisture in the air, the residues on the surfaces of capacitors in high humidity conditions may cause
a degradation of insulation resistance and reliability of the capacitors. Therefore, the cleaning methods and the capability of the machines used shall also be
considered carefully when water-soluble flux is used.
Soldering
Ceramic chip capacitors are susceptible to thermal shock when exposed to rapid or concentrated heating or rapid cooling.
Therefore, the soldering must be conducted with great care so as to prevent malfunction of the components due to excessive thermal shock.
Preheating : Capacitors shall be preheated sufficiently, and the temperature difference between the capacitors and solder shall be within 100 to 130.
Cooling : The temperature difference between the capacitors and cleaning process shall not be greater than 100.

Precautions on the use of Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors
5. Cleaning
Precautions
Cleaning conditions
1. When PCBs are cleaned after capacitors mounting, please select the appropriate cleaning solution in accordance with the intended use of the cleaning.e.g. to
remove soldering flux or other materials from the production process.
2. Cleaning condition shall be determined after it is verified by using actual cleaning machine that the cleaning process does not affect capacitor's characteristics.
Technical
consider-
ations
1. The use of inappropriate cleaning solutions can cause foreign substances such as flux residue to adhere to capacitors or deteriorate their outer coating, resulting in
a degradation of the capacitor's electrical properties especially insulation resistance.
2. Inappropriate cleaning conditions insufficient or excessive cleaning may adversely affect the performance of the capacitors.
In the case of ultrasonic cleaning, too much power output can cause excessive vibration of PCBs which may lead to the cracking of capacitors or the soldered
portion, or decrease the terminal electrodes' strength. Therefore, the following conditions shall be carefully checked;
Ultrasonic output : 20 W/ or less
Ultrasonic frequency : 40 kHz or less
Ultrasonic washing period : 5 min. or less
6. Resin coating and mold
Precautions
1. With some type of resins, decomposition gas or chemical reaction vapor may remain inside the resin during the hardening period or while left under normal stor-
age conditions resulting in the deterioration of the capacitor's performance.
2. When a resin's hardening temperature is higher than capacitor's operating temperature, the stresses generated by the excessive heat may lead to damage or
destruction of capacitors.
The use of such resins, molding materials etc. is not recommended.
7. Handling
Precautions
Splitting of PCB
1. When PCBs are split after components mounting, care shall be taken so as not to give any stresses of deflection or twisting to the board.
2. Board separation shall not be done manually, but by using the appropriate devices.
Mechanical considerations
Be careful not to subject capacitors to excessive mechanical shocks.
1If ceramic capacitors are dropped onto a floor or a hard surface, they shall not be used.
2Please be careful that the mounted components do not come in contact with or bump against other boards or components.
8. Storage conditions
Precautions
Storage
1.
To maintain the solderability of terminal electrodes and to keep packaging materials in good condition, care must be taken to control temperature and humidity in
the storage area. Humidity should especially be kept as low as possible.
Recommended conditions
Ambient temperature : Below 30
Humidity : Below 70% RH
The ambient temperature must be kept below 40. Even under ideal storage conditions, solderability of capacitor is deteriorated as time passes, so capaci-
tors shall be used within 6 months from the time of delivery.
Ceramic chip capacitors shall be kept where no chlorine or sulfur exists in the air.
2.
The capacitance values of high dielectric constant capacitors will gradually decrease with the passage of time, o care shall be taken to design circuits . Even if
capacitance value decreases as time passes, it will get back to the initial value by a heat treatment at 150 for 1hour.
Technical
consider-
ations
If capacitors are stored in a high temperature and humidity environment, it might rapidly cause poor solderability due to terminal oxidation and quality loss of taping/
packaging materials. For this reason, capacitors shall be used within 6 months from the time of delivery. If exceeding the above period, please check solderability be-
fore using the capacitors.
