Axial Through-Hole Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors Aximax, 400 Series, Axial, Conformally Coated, X8L Dielectric, 25 – 50 VDC (Commercial & Automotive Grade) Overview KEMET’s Aximax conformally coated axial through-hole ceramic capacitors in X8L dielectric feature a 150°C maximum operating temperature and is considered "general purpose high temperature". These components are fixed, ceramic dielectric capacitors suited for high temperature bypass and decoupling applications or frequency discriminating circuits where Q and stability of capacitance characteristics are not critical. X8L exhibits a predictable change in capacitance with respect to time and voltage and boasts a minimal change in capacitance with reference to ambient temperature up to 125°C. Beyond 125°C X8L displays a wider variation in capacitance. Capacitance change is limited to ±15% from -55°C to +125°C and +15, -40% from 125°C to 150°C. In addition to commercial grade, automotive grade devices are available and meet the demanding Automotive Electronics Council's AEC-Q200 qualification requirements. These devices meet the flame test requirements outlined in UL Standard 94V-0. Driven by the demand for a more robust and reliable component, X8L dielectric capacitors were developed for critical applications where reliability at higher operating temperatures are a concern. These capacitors are widely used in automotive circuits as well as general high temperature applications.

Storage & Handling The un-mounted storage life of a through-hole (leaded) ceramic capacitor is dependent upon storage and atmospheric conditions as well as packaging materials. While the ceramic chips enveloped under the epoxy coating themselves are quite robust in most environments, solderability of the wire lead on the final epoxy-coated product will be degraded by exposure to high temperatures, high humidity, corrosive atmospheres, and long term storage. In addition, packaging materials will be degraded by high temperature and exposure to direct sunlight – reels may soften or warp, and tape peel force may increase. KEMET recommends storing the un-mounted capacitors in their original packaging, in a location away from direct sunlight, and where the temperature and relative humidity do not exceed 40 degrees centigrade and 70% respectively. For optimum solderability, capacitor stock should be used promptly, preferably within 18 months of receipt. For applications requiring pre-tinning of components, storage life may be extended if solderability is verified. Before cleaning, bonding or molding these devices, it is important to verify that your process does not affect product quality and performance. KEMET recommends testing and evaluating the performance of a cleaned, bonded or molded product prior to implementing and/or qualifying any of these processes. © KEMET Electronics Corporation • P.O.

KEMET’s internal specification four-digit suffix, 7200, is placed at the end of the part number to designate tape and reel packaging, e.g., C410C104Z5U5CA7200. Paper (50 lb.) test minimum is inserted between the layers of capacitors wound on reels for component pitch ≤ 0.400". Capacitor lead length may extend only a maximum of .0625" (1.59 mm) beyond the tapes’ edges. Capacitors are centered in a row between the two tapes and will deviate only ± 0.031" (0.79 mm) from the row center. A minimum of 36" (91.5 cm) leader tape is provided at each finished length of taped components. Universal splicing clips are used to connect the tape.
