High Voltage MLC Chips

For 600V to 5000V Applications

010419

NEW 630V RANGE

High value, low leakage and small size are difficult parameters to obtain in capacitors for high

voltage systems. AVX special high voltage MLC chip capacitors meet these performance

characteristics and are designed for applications such as snubbers in high frequency power

converters, resonators in SMPS, and high voltage coupling/dc blocking. These high voltage

chip designs exhibit low ESRs at high frequencies.

Larger physical sizes than normally encountered chips are used to make high voltage MLC

chip products. Special precautions must be taken in applying these chips in surface mount

assemblies. The temperature gradient during heating or cooling cycles should not exceed 4ºC

per second. The preheat temperature must be within 50ºC of the peak temperature reached by

the ceramic bodies through the soldering process. Chip sizes 1210 and larger should be reflow

soldered only. Capacitors may require protective surface coating to prevent external arcing.

For 1825, 2225 and 3640 sizes, AVX offers leaded version in either thru-hole or SMT

configurations (for details see section on high voltage leaded MLC chips)

HOW TO ORDER

*Note: Terminations with 5% minimum lead (Pb) is available, see pages 100 and 101 for LD style.

Leaded terminations are available, see pages 102-106.

Notes: Capacitors with X7R dielectrics are not intended for applications across AC supply mains or AC line filtering with polarity reversal. Contact plant for

recommendations. Contact factory for availability of Termination and Tolerance options for Specific Part Numbers.

**The 3640 Style is not available on 7” Reels.

*** AVX offers nonstandard chip sizes. Contact factory for details.
