TDK CGA Automotive 0805, X5R, X7R and Y5V Dielectric
From TDK, the CGA Series of Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCCs) provides a highly reliable solution. Utilising precision technology, this series of MLCCs is constructed with multiple thin ceramic dielectric layers enabling high capacitance. These MLCCs feature low ESR ensuring low self-heating and high ripple resistance. CGA multilayer ceramic capacitors also have low ESL and excellent frequency characteristics.
Features and Benefits:
Excellent heat resistance
Greater mechanical strength
Superior reliability
Guaranteed performance from a matured manufacturing process
Available with a range of dielectrics
Suitable for high accuracy automatic mounting
Low stray capacitance
Applications:
These MLCCs are AEC-Q200 qualified and suitable for automotive applications. Typical applications include automotive battery line smoothing, sensor modules and engine control units. CAG Series ceramic capacitors are ideal for anti-lock brake systems and automotive infotainment systems. Other recommended applications include smart meters, smart grids, solar inverters, AC-DC battery chargers, transportation and agriculture.
0805 Range
Nickel barrier terminations covered with a layer of plated Tin (NiSn). Applications include mobile phones, video and tuner designs, COG/NPO is the most popular formulation of the "temperature compensating", EIA Class I ceramic materials, X7R, X5R formulations are called "temperature stable" ceramics and fall into the EIA Class II materials, Y5V, Z5U formulations are for general purpose use in a limited temperature range, EIA Class II materials; these characteristics are ideal for decoupling applications.
