Low Inductance Capacitors (SnPb)
LICC 0612/0508/0306 X7R & X5R Dielectric
The total inductance of a chip capacitor is determined both by its length to width ratio and
by the mutual inductance coupling between its electrodes.
Thus a 1210 chip size has a lower inductance than a 1206 chip. This design improvement is
the basis of AVX’s Low Inductance Chip Capacitors (LICC), where the electrodes are termi-
nated on the long side of the chip instead of the short side. The 1206 becomes an 0612, in
the same manner, an 0805 becomes an 0508, an 0603 becomes an 0306. This results in a
reduction in inductance from the 1nH range found in normal chip capacitors to less than
0.2nH for LICCs. Their low profile is also ideal for surface mounting (both on the PCB and on
IC package) or inside cavity mounting on the IC itself.
