Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
Z5U Dielectric, 50VDC-100VDC (Commercial Grade)
Overview
KEMET’s Z5U dielectric features an 85°C maximum operating
temperature and is considered “general-purpose.” The Electronics
Components, Assemblies & Materials Association (EIA)
characterizes Z5U dielectric as a Class III material. Components
of this classification are fixed, ceramic dielectric capacitors suited
for bypass and decoupling or other applications in which dielectric
losses, high insulation resistance and capacitance stability are
not of major importance. Z5U exhibits a predictable change in
capacitance with respect to time and voltage and displays wide
variations in capacitance with reference to ambient temperature.
Capacitance change is limited to +22%, -56% from +10°C to
+85°C.
