KEMET Introduces KPS-MCC C0G High Temperature 200 Degree Celsius Bulk Capacitance Solution for Harsh Environment Applications...
September 28 2017 - 04:15PM
KEMET Corporation (NYSE:KEM), a leading global
supplier of electronic components, today announced the launch of
the
KPS-MCC C0G High Temperature 200
Degree Celsius bulk capacitance solution for harsh
environment applications. Developed by combining KEMET’s robust and
proprietary C0G/NPO base metal electrode (BME) dielectric system
with durable lead frame technology, these capacitors are ideal for
demanding high temperature, high voltage and high vibration
applications such as down-hole oil exploration, automotive and
hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), defense and aerospace.

The KEMET C0G BME dielectric system is designed to provide high
reliability at operating temperatures up to 200 degrees Celsius,
while maintaining high insulation resistance, very low ESR and very
high ripple current capability at high frequencies. In addition,
this series provides superior stability with no capacitance change
versus DC voltage and ±30 ppm/°C capacitance change over
temperature. A high melting point (HMP) solder for lead attachment
enables multiple chips to be stacked in parallel to provide bulk
capacitance with excellent mechanical robustness. Superior
electrical performance, high reliability, and mechanical robustness
of KEMET’s BME C0G dielectric results in a preferred solution over
Class II (X7R/X5R) capacitors above 175 degrees Celsius.
Available in three case sizes, the KPS-MCC series offers
voltages up to 2,000 V and capacitance up to 2 microfarads in a
footprint of less than 0.55 square inches. Each case size can be
ordered in a straight pin, formed “L,” or formed “J” configuration
and with a silver (Ag) or solder coated (SnPb) termination
finish.
“This latest addition to KEMET’s world-class BME C0G offering
extends KEMET’s portfolio up to 2 microfarads in a Class I
solution,” said Dr. John Bultitude, KEMET Vice President and
Technical Fellow. “With KEMET’s temperature-cycling resistant lead
frame technology and high ripple current capability, these bulk
capacitance solutions provide unparalleled performance for the
harshest environments on, under and above the Earth.”
