KEMET, a YAGEO Group company, announced release of its CHT series of high temperature 260°C SMD Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCCs).
The KEMET’s C0G High Temperature 260°C SMD Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCCs) are constructed from a robust and proprietary C0G/NP0 base metal electrode (BME) dielectric system that offers industry-leading performance at extreme temperatures.
The CHT series high temperature C0G MLCC capacitors are specifically designed for applications in harsh environmental conditions such as downhole oil exploration, industrial high temperature electronics, geothermal, and aerospace which require capacitors that are robust and reliable at extreme temperatures such as 260°C.
KEMET’s C0G dielectric exhibits no change in capacitance with respect to time and voltage and boasts a negligible change in capacitance with reference to ambient temperature.
KEMET’s C0G High Temperature 260°C SMD also incorporates a gold (Au) termination finish providing a clean solderable surface that can withstand the most extreme environments. These devices are Lead (Pb)-Free, RoHS, and REACH compliant without the need for any exemptions.
