Electrical Parameters
As detailed in the KEMET Surface Mount Catalog F3102 for X5R, with following specific
requirements based on room temperature (25°C) parameters:
• Operating Range: -55°C to +85°C, with no-bias capacitance shift limited to ± 15% over that range
• Insulation Resistance (IR) measured after 2 minutes at rated voltage @ 25°C: Limit is 500
megohm microfarads.
• Capacitance and Dissipation Factor (DF) measured at the following conditions. DF Limit is 10%.
1 kHz and 1 Vrms if capacitance
≤
10 µF
120 Hz and 0.5 Vrms if capacitance > 10 µF
Soldering Process
These components are suitable for wave or reflow soldering. All parts incorporate the standard
KEMET barrier layer of pure nickel, with an overplate of pure tin to provide excellent solderability
as well as resistance to leaching.
Marking
These chips are normally supplied unmarked. If required, they can be laser marked as an extra
cost option. More detail on the marking format is included in our Surface Mount Catalog F3102.
In general, the information in the KEMET Surface Mount catalog F3102 applies to these
capacitors. The information in this bulletin supplements that in the catalog.
