KEMET Electronics U2J Commercial Grade Flexible Termination MLCCs

KEMET U2J Flexible Termination Dielectric MLCCs combine a unique, flexible termination system with KEMET's standard termination materials. Conductive silver epoxy is used between the base metal and nickel barrier layers of the standard termination to establish pliability while maintaining terminal strength, solderability, and electrical performance. The technology is engineered to address failure due to flex cracks as a result of excessive tensile and shear stresses produced during board flexure and thermal cycling. Flexible termination prevents the transfer of board stress to the rigid ceramic body, mitigating flex cracks that can result in low IR or short circuit failures. KEMET U2J Flexible Termination Dielectric MLCCs operate in a -55°C to +125°C temperature range.
