Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
Floating Electrode Design with Flexible Termination System
(FF-CAP), X7R Dielectric, 6.3 – 250 VDC (Commercial & Automotive Grade)
Overview
KEMET’s Floating Electrode with Flexible Termination capacitor
(FF-CAP) combines two existing KEMET technologies–
Floating Electrode and Flexible Termination. The floating
electrode component utilizes a cascading internal electrode
design configured to form multiple capacitors in series within
a single monolithic structure. This unique configuration results
in enhanced voltage and ESD performance over standard
capacitor designs while allowing for a fail-open condition if
mechanically damaged (cracked). The flexible termination
component utilizes a conductive silver epoxy between the base
metal and nickel barrier layers of KEMET’s standard termination
system in order to establish pliability while maintaining terminal
strength, solderability and electrical performance. Both
technologies address the primary failure mode of MLCCs– flex
cracks, which are typically the result of excessive tensile and
shear stresses produced during board flexure and thermal
cycling.
Although neither technology can eliminate the potential for
mechanical damage that may propagate during extreme
environmental and/or handling conditions, the combination of
these two technologies provide the ultimate level of protection
against a low IR or short circuit condition. The FF-CAP
complements KEMET’s Open Mode, Floating Electrode (FE-CAP),
Flexible Termination (FT-CAP) and KEMET Power Solutions (KPS)
product lines by providing an ultimate fail-safe design optimized
for low to mid range capacitance values. These devices exhibit a
predictable change in capacitance with respect to time and voltage
and boast a minimal change in capacitance with reference to
ambient temperature. Capacitance change is limited to ±15% from
-55°C to +125°C.
In addition to Commercial Grade, Automotive Grade devices
are available which meet the demanding Automotive Electronics
Council's AEC–Q200 qualification requirements.

Applications
Typical applications include circuits with a direct battery or power source connection, critical and safety relevant circuits without
(integrated) current limitation and any application that is subject to high levels of board flexure or temperature cycling. Examples
include raw power input side filtering (power plane/bus), high current applications (automobile battery line) and circuits that cannot be
fused to open. Markets include consumer, medical, industrial (power supply), automotive, aerospace and telecom.

Parameters/Characteristics
Regarding aging rate: Capacitance measurements (including tolerance) are indexed to a referee time of 1,000 hours.
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 kHz ±50 Hz and 1.0 ±0.2 Vrms if capacitance ≤ 10 µF
120 Hz ±10 Hz and 0.5 ±0.1 Vrms if capacitance > 10 µF
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."
