APS for COTS+ High Reliability Applications
General Specifications
Surface Mount NP0, X7R and X8R/L MLCCs
AVX's APS COTS+ series of multilayer ceramic capacitors offers the customer a high reliability solution with an ultralow
failure rate, <1ppb, in a variety of case sizes and voltages. The APS range encompasses a wide range of dielectric types to
meet the customer's requirements from low temperature/voltage capacitance change dielectric, NP0, to high preforming
capacitance voltage X7R to high temperature reliability dielectrics, X8R/L.
APS capacitors have a wider capacitance range than MIL spec parts that satisfies the need for higher CV demands and
board space saving requirements. Each production lot is extensively tested and removes the requirement for customer
specific drawings. The testing regime uses many of the MIL-STD test methods as per MIL-PRF-55681 and has a field
failure rate of less than 1 ppb. The APS testing series uses AVX’s unique in-house maverick testing detection system that
eliminates infant mortality failures.
Applications suitable for APS include Industrial, Telecommunications, Aviation, and Military. The APS is available with a
range of different termination finishes, Flexiterm®, Nickel / Tin and Tin with Pb1. Flexiterm® technology delivers improved
thermo-mechanical stress resistance.
