One world. One KEMET
Overview
KEMET Power Solutions (KPS) Commercial Series stacked
capacitors utilize a proprietary lead-frame technology to
vertically stack one or two multilayer ceramic chip capacitors
into a single compact surface mount package. The attached
lead-frame mechanically isolates the capacitor/s from the
printed circuit board, therefore offering advanced mechanical
and thermal stress performance. Isolation also addresses
concerns for audible, microphonic noise that may occur when
a bias voltage is applied. A two chip stack offers up to double
the capacitance in the same or smaller design footprint when
compared to traditional surface mount MLCCs devices.
Providing up to 10 mm of board ex capability, KPS Series
capacitors are environmentally friendly and in compliance with
RoHS legislation. Available in X7R dielectric, these devices are
capable of Pb-Free reow proles and provide lower ESR, ESL
and higher ripple current capability when compared to other
dielectric solutions.
Combined with the stability of an X7R dielectric, KEMET’s KPS
Series devices exhibit a predictable change in capacitance
with respect to time and voltage and boast a minimal change in
capacitance with reference to ambient temperature. Capacitance
change is limited to ±15% from -55°C to +125°C.

See Insulation Resistance Limit Table
(Rated voltage applied for 120 ±5 seconds @ 25°C)
Regarding aging rate: Capacitance measurements (including tolerance) are indexed to a referee time of 48 or 1,000 hours. Please refer to a part number specic
datasheet for referee time details.
To obtain IR limit, divide MΩ-µF value by the capacitance and compare to GΩ limit. Select the lower of the two limits.
Capacitance and dissipation factor (DF) measured under the following conditions:
1 kHz ±50 Hz and 1.0 ±0.2 Vrms if capacitance ≤ 10 µF
120 Hz ±10 Hz and 0.5 ±0.1 Vrms if capacitance > 10 µF
Note: When measuring capacitance it is important to ensure the set voltage level is held constant. The HP4284 and Agilent E4980 have a feature known as
Automatic Level Control (ALC). The ALC feature should be switched to "ON."

Soldering Process
KEMET’s KPS Series devices are compatible with IR reow
techniques. Preheating of these components is recommended
to avoid extreme thermal stress. KEMET's recommended prole
conditions for IR reow reect the prole conditions of the
IPC/J–STD–020D standard for moisture sensitivity testing.
To prevent degradation of temperature cycling capability, care
must be taken to prevent solder from owing into the inner side
of the lead frames (inner side of "J" lead in contact with the
circuit board).
After soldering, the capacitors should be air cooled to room
temperature before further processing. Forced air cooling is not
recommended.
Hand soldering should be performed with care due to the
difculty in process control. If performed, care should be taken
to avoid contact of the soldering iron to the capacitor body. The
iron should be used to heat the solder pad, applying solder
between the pad and the lead, until reow occurs. Once reow
occurs, the iron should be removed immediately. (Preheating is
required when hand soldering to avoid thermal shock.)

Storage & Handling
Ceramic chip capacitors should be stored in normal working environments. While the chips themselves are quite robust in other
environments, solderability will be degraded by exposure to high temperatures, high humidity, corrosive atmospheres, and long term
storage. In addition, packaging materials will be degraded by high temperature– reels may soften or warp and tape peel force may
increase. KEMET recommends that maximum storage temperature not exceed 40ºC and maximum storage humidity not exceed 70%
relative humidity. Temperature uctuations should be minimized to avoid condensation on the parts and atmospheres should be free of
chlorine and sulfur bearing compounds. For optimized solderability chip stock should be used promptly, preferably within 1.5 years of
receipt.
