As for C3225, C4532 and C5750 types, It is recommended to provide a slit (about 1mm wide)
in the board under the components to improve washing Flux. And please make sure to dry
detergent up completely before.

Operating
Condition
(Storage,
Transportation)
1-1. Storage
1) The capacitors must be stored in an ambient temperature of 5 to 40°C with a
relative humidity of 20 to 70%RH. The products should be used within 6 months
upon receipt.
2) The capacitors must be operated and stored in an environment free of dew
condensation and these gases such as Hydrogen Sulphide, Hydrogen Sulphate,
Chlorine, Ammonia and sulfur.
3) Avoid storing in sun light and falling of dew.
4) Do not use capacitors under high humidity and high and low atmospheric pressure
which may affect capacitors reliability.
5) Capacitors should be tested for the solderability when they are stored for long time.
1-2. Handling in transportation
In case of the transportation of the capacitors, the performance of the capacitors
may be deteriorated depending on the transportation condition.
(Refer to JEITA RCR-2335B 9.2 Handling in transportation)

Circuit design
 Caution
2-1. Operating temperature
Operating temperature should be followed strictly within this specification, especially
be careful with maximum temperature.
1) Do not use capacitors above the maximum allowable operating temperature.
2) Surface temperature including self heating should be below maximum operating
temperature.
(Due to dielectric loss, capacitors will heat itself when AC is applied. Especially at
high frequencies around its SRF, the heat might be so extreme that it may damage
itself or the product mounted on. Please design the circuit so that the maximum
temperature of the capacitors including the self heating to be below the maximum
allowable operating temperature. Temperature rise at capacitor surface shall be
below 20°C)
3) The electrical characteristics of the capacitors will vary depending on the
temperature. The capacitors should be selected and designed in taking the
temperature into consideration.
2-2. Operating voltage
1) Operating voltage across the terminals should be below the rated voltage.
When AC and DC are super imposed, V0-P must be below the rated voltage.
— (1) and (2)
AC or pulse with overshooting, VP-P must be below the rated voltage.
— (3), (4) and (5)
When the voltage is started to apply to the circuit or it is stopped applying, the
irregular voltage may be generated for a transit period because of resonance or
switching. Be sure to use the capacitors within rated voltage containing these

2) Even below the rated voltage, if repetitive high frequency AC or pulse is applied, the
reliability of the capacitors may be reduced.
3) The effective capacitance will vary depending on applied DC and AC voltages.
The capacitors should be selected and designed in taking the voltages into
consideration.
2-3. Frequency
When the capacitors (Class 2) are used in AC and/or pulse voltages, the
capacitors may vibrate themselves and generate audible sound.

Designing
P.C.board
The amount of solder at the terminations has a direct effect on the reliability of the
capacitors.
1) The greater the amount of solder, the higher the stress on the chip capacitors,
and the more likely that it will break. When designing a P.C.board, determine the
shape and size of the solder lands to have proper amount of solder on the
terminations.
2) Avoid using common solder land for multiple terminations and provide individual
solder land for each terminations.
3) Size and recommended land dimensions.

If the mounting head is adjusted too low, it may induce excessive stress in the chip
capacitors to result in cracking. Please take following precautions.
1) Adjust the bottom dead center of the mounting head to reach on the P.C.board
surface and not press it.
2) Adjust the mounting head pressure to be 1 to 3N of static weight.
3) To minimize the impact energy from mounting head, it is important to provide
support from the bottom side of the P.C.board.

Soldering
5-1. Flux selection
Although highly-activated flux gives better solderability, substances which increase
activity may also degrade the insulation of the chip capacitors. To avoid such
degradation, it is recommended following.
1) It is recommended to use a mildly activated rosin flux (less than 0.1wt% chlorine).
Strong flux is not recommended.
2) Excessive flux must be avoided. Please provide proper amount of flux.
3) When water-soluble flux is used, enough washing is necessary.

Sn-Zn solder affects product reliability.
Please contact TDK in advance when utilize Sn-Zn solder.
5-8. Countermeasure for tombstone
The misalignment between the mounted positions of the capacitors and the land
patterns should be minimized. The tombstone phenomenon may occur especially
the capacitors are mounted (in longitudinal direction) in the same direction of the
reflow soldering.
(Refer to JEITA RCR-2335B Annex 1 (Informative) Recommendations to prevent the
tombstone phenomenon)

Cleaning
1) If an unsuitable cleaning fluid is used, flux residue or some foreign articles may
stick to chip capacitors surface to deteriorate especially the insulation resistance.
2) If cleaning condition is not suitable, it may damage the chip capacitors.
2)-1. Insufficient washing
(1) Terminal electrodes may corrode by Halogen in the flux.
(2) Halogen in the flux may adhere on the surface of capacitors, and lower the
insulation resistance.
(3) Water soluble flux has higher tendency to have above mentioned
problems (1) and (2).
2)-2. Excessive washing
When ultrasonic cleaning is used, excessively high ultrasonic energy output
can affect the connection between the ceramic chip capacitor's body and the
terminal electrode. To avoid this, following is the recommended condition.
Power : 20 W/ max.
Frequency : 40 kHz max.
Washing time : 5 minutes max.
2)-3. If the cleaning fluid is contaminated, density of Halogen increases, and it may
bring the same result as insufficient cleaning.

 Caution
1) Please pay attention not to bend or distort the P.C.board after soldering in handling
otherwise the chip capacitors may crack.
Bend

2) When functional check of the P.C.board is performed, check pin pressure tends
to be adjusted higher for fear of loose contact. But if the pressure is excessive
and bend the P.C.board, it may crack the chip capacitors or peel the terminations
off. Please adjust the check pins not to bend the P.C.board.

Capacitance aging
The capacitors (Class 2) have aging in the capacitance. They may not be used in
precision time constant circuit. In case of the time constant circuit, the evaluation
should be done well.

Estimated life and
estimated failure
rate of capacitors
As per the estimated life and the estimated failure rate depend on the temperature
and the voltage. This can be calculated by the equation described in JEITA
RCR-2335B Annex 6 (Informative) Calculation of the estimated lifetime and the
estimated failure rate ( Voltage acceleration coefficient : 3 multiplication rule,
Temperature acceleration coefficient : 10°C rule)
The failure rate can be decreased by reducing the temperature and the voltage but
they will not be guaranteed.
