Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
C0G Dielectric, 10 – 250 VDC (Automotive Grade)
Overview
KEMET’s Automotive Grade Series surface mount capacitors
in C0G dielectric are suited for a variety of applications
requiring proven, reliable performance in harsh environments.
Whether under-hood or in-cabin, these devices emphasize
the vital and robust nature of capacitors required for mission
and safety critical automotive circuits. Stricter testing protocol
and inspection criteria have been established for automotive
grade products in recognition of potentially harsh environmental
conditions. KEMET automotive grade series capacitors meet
the demanding Automotive Electronics Council's AEC–Q200
qualification requirements
C0G dielectric features a 125°C maximum operating temperature
and is considered “stable.” The Electronics Industries Alliance
(EIA) characterizes C0G dielectric as a Class I material.
Components of this classification are temperature compensating
and are suited for resonant circuit applications or those where
Q and stability of capacitance characteristics are required. C0G
exhibits no change in capacitance with respect to time and voltage
and boasts a negligible change in capacitance with reference to
ambient temperature. Capacitance change is limited to ±30 ppm/
ºC from -55°C to +125°C.

Automotive C-Spec Information
KEMET Automotive Grade products meet or exceed the requirements outlined by the Automotive Electronics Council. Details regarding
test methods and conditions are referenced in document AEC–Q200, Stress Test Qualification for Passive Components. These
products are supported by a Product Change Notification (PCN) and Production Part Approval Process warrant (PPAP).
Automotive products offered through our distribution channel have been assigned an inclusive ordering code C-Spec, "AUTO". This
C-Spec was developed in order to better serve small and medium sized companies that prefer an automotive grade component without
the requirement to submit a customer Source Controlled Drawing (SCD) or specification for review by a KEMET engineering specialist.
This C-Spec is therefore not intended for use by KEMET’s OEM Automotive customers and are not granted the same “privileges” as
other automotive C-Specs. Customer PCN approval and PPAP request levels are limited (see details below).
Product Change Notification (PCN)
The KEMET Product Change Notification system is used to communicate primarily the following types of changes:
• Product/process changes that affect product form, fit , function, and /or reliability
• Changes in manufacturing site
• Product obsolescence

KEMET assigned C-Specs require the submittal of a customer SCD or customer specification for review. For additional information contact KEMET.
Production Part Approval Process (PPAP)
The purpose of the Production Part Approval Process is:
• To ensure that supplier can meet the manufacturability and quality requirements for the purchased parts.
• To provide the evidence that all customer engineering design record and specification requirements are properly understood and
fulfilled by the manufacturing organization.
• To demonstrate that the established manufacturing process has the potential to produce the part

Parameters/Characteristics
To obtain IR limit, divide MΩ-µF value by the capacitance and compare to GΩ limit. Select the lower of the two limits.
Capacitance and dissipation factor (DF) measured under the following conditions:
1 MHz ±100 kHz and 1.0 Vrms ±0.2 V if capacitance ≤ 1,000 pF
1 kHz ±50 Hz and 1.0 Vrms ±0.2 V if capacitance > 1,000 pF
Note: When measuring capacitance it is important to ensure the set voltage level is held constant. The HP4284 and Agilent E4980 have a feature known as
Automatic Level Control (ALC). The ALC feature should be switched to "ON."
