Multilayer ceramic capacitor
MLSC series
in one component
The MLSC (Multi Layer Serial Ceramic Capacitor) consists of two serial connected capacitors
Due to the special design the probability of a short circuit is much reduced
The MLSC meets the requirements of automotive manufacturers for a (redundant) serial
connection of two capacitors, if the application is directly connected to the battery, in one
component.
Reduced number of components leads to
The MLSC is based on established MLCC technology, but with more robust design. This
MLCC technology offers highest reliability (ppb-rate) and long term field experience.
The MLSC offers high reliability due to more stringent process control and end of line testing,
which enables the achievement of a 10 ppb level for the application failure rate (measure: 0
mileage and field), see chapter ppb – Level Assurance System page 12.
The MLSC meets AEC-Q200 requirements, see pages 7 – 11.
The specified bending strength is 2 mm according to piezo electric method (∆I measurement)
The MLSC is suitable for applications with temperature requirements up to 150 °C with respect
to the voltage derating and short term temperature peaks up to 175 °C without load, see
chapter High Temperature Application page 3.
The MLSC is lead free in terms of RoHS.
Nickel barrier termination
BME technology
The MLSC offers a selected range of capacitance in case size 0805 (rated voltage 50 V and
100 V).
- in case of a bending crack
- in many cases of an assembling crack
- in many cases of a solder shock crack
- increased reliability
- place saving on the PCB
- reduced assembling time
