Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
Z5U Dielectric, 50 – 100 VDC (Commercial Grade)
Overview
KEMET’s Z5U dielectric features an 85°C maximum
operating temperature and is considered “general-purpose.”
The Electronics Components, Assemblies & Materials
Association (EIA) characterizes Z5U dielectric as a Class
III material. Components of this classification are fixed,
ceramic dielectric capacitors suited for bypass and
decoupling or other applications in which dielectric losses,
high insulation resistance and capacitance stability are not
of major importance. Z5U exhibits a predictable change in
capacitance with respect to time and voltage and displays
wide variations in capacitance with reference to ambient
temperature. Capacitance change is limited to +22%, −56%
from +10°C to +85°C.

Regarding Aging Rate: Capacitance measurements (including tolerance) are indexed to a referee time of 48 or 1,000 hours. Please refer to a part
number specific datasheet for referee time details.
2
DWV is the voltage a capacitor can withstand (survive) for a short period of time. It exceeds the nominal and continuous working voltage of the
capacitor.
3
Capacitance and dissipation factor (DF) measured under the following conditions:
1kHz ± 50Hz and 1.0 ± 0.2 Vrms if capacitance ≤10µF
120Hz ± 10Hz and 0.5 ± 0.1 Vrms if capacitance >10µF
4
To obtain IR limit, divide MΩ-µF value by the capacitance and compare to GΩ limit. Select the lower of the two limits.
Note: When measuring capacitance it is important to ensure the set voltage level is held constant. The HP4284 & Agilent E4980 have a feature known as
Automatic Level Control (ALC). The ALC feature should be switched to "ON".

The "Packaging C-Spec" is a 4 to 8 digit code which identifies the packaging type and/or product grade. When ordering, the proper code must be
included in the 15th through 22nd character positions of the ordering code. See "Ordering Information" section of this document for further details.
Commercial Grade product ordered without a packaging C-Spec will default to our standard "Bulk Bag" packaging. Contact KEMET if you require a bulk
bag packaging option for Automotive Grade products.
2
A packaging C-Spec (see note 1 above) is not required for "Bulk Bag" packaging (excluding Anti-Static Bulk Bag and Automotive Grade products). The
15th through 22nd character positions of the ordering code should be left blank. All product ordered without a packaging C-Spec will default to our
standard "Bulk Bag" packaging.
