KEMET C2220C226M3N2C7186

KEMET Power Solutions High Temperature (KPS HT) stacked capacitors use proprietary lead frame technology to vertically stack one or two multilayer ceramic chip capacitors into a single compact SMT package. The connected lead frame mechanically isolates the capacitors from the PCB, providing excellent mechanical and thermal stress performance. This isolation also addresses audible microphonic noise that may occur when a bias voltage is applied. Compared to conventional SMT MLCC devices, the dual-chip stack delivers up to twice the capacitance in the same or smaller footprint. KPS series capacitors offer up to 10 mm of board flex capability and are environmentally friendly and RoHS compliant. Combined with the X8L dielectric, these devices operate reliably at temperatures up to 150°C, making them ideal for high-temperature filtering, bypassing, and decoupling applications.

The X8L capacitance exhibits predictable variation over time and voltage, with minimal capacitance change up to 125°C ambient temperature. Above 125°C, the X8L capacitance variation range becomes wider. Over the -55°C to +125°C temperature range, capacitance change is limited to ±15%; over the 125°C to 150°C range, capacitance change is +15% to -40%.

In addition to commercial-grade products, automotive-grade products qualified to the stringent AEC-Q200 requirements of the Automotive Electronics Council are also available.
