CAPACITANCE “AGING” OF CERAMIC CAPACITORS
Following the final heat treatment, all class 2 ceramic capacitors reduce their capacitance value. According to logarithmic law,
this is due to their special crystalline construction. This change is called “aging”. If the capacitors are heat treated (for example
when soldering), the capacitance increases again to a higher value deaging, and the aging process begins again.
Note
• The level of this deaging is dependent on the temperature and the duration of the heat; an almost complete deaging is achieved at 150 °C
in one hour. These conditions also form the basis for reference measurements when testing. The capacitance change per time decade
(aging constant) differs for the various types of ceramic, but typical values can be taken from the equations below.
100 x  C 11 - C 12 
k = ----------------------------------------------C 11 x log 10  t 2 /t 1 
t1, t2 = measuring time point (h)
C11, C12 = capacitance values for the times t1, t2
k = aging constant (%)
C 12 = C 11 x  1 - k/100 x log 10  t 2 /t 1  
REFERENCE MEASUREMENT
Due to aging, it is necessary to quote an age for reference measurements which can be related to the capacitance with fixed
tolerance. According to EN 130700, this time period is 1000 h.
In order to avoid the influence of aging, it is important to deage the capacitors before stress-testing. The following procedure is
adopted (see also EN 130700):
Deaging at 125 °C, 1 h
Storage for 24 h at normal climate temperature
Initial measurement
Stress
Deaging at 125 °C, 1 h

STORAGE
The capacitors must not be stored in a corrosive atmosphere, where sulphide or chloride gas, acid, alkali or salt are present.
Exposure of the components to moisture, should be avoided. The solderability of the leads is not affected by storage of up to
24 months (temperature +10 °C to +40 °C, relative humidity up to 60 % RH). Class 2 ceramic dielectric capacitors are also
subject to aging see previous page.

SOLDERING RECOMMENDATIONS
Soldering of the component should be achieved using a Sn96.5/Ag3.0/Cu0.5, a Sn60/40 type or a silver-bearing Sn type solder.
Ceramic capacitors are very sensitive to rapid changes in temperature (Thermal shock) therefore the solder heat resistance
specification (see above table) should not be exceeded. Subjecting the capacitor to excessive heating may result in thermal
shocks that can crack the ceramic body. Similarly, excessive heating can cause the internal solder junction to melt.
CLEANING
The components should be cleaned immediately following the soldering operation with vapor degreasers.
SOLVENT RESISTANCE
The coating and marking of the capacitors are resistant to the following test method:
IEC 60068-2-45 (method XA)
MOUNTING
We do not recommend modifying the lead terminals, e.g. bending or cropping. This action could break the coating or crack the
ceramic insert. If however, the lead must be modified in any way, we recommend support of the lead with a clamping fixture
next to the coating.

• Report on production test findings
• Agreement on ppm concept
RELIABILITY
By careful control of the manufacturing process stages, the quality of the product is maintained at the highest possible level.
To obtain data on the reliability of our ceramic capacitors, many long-term tests under increased temperature and voltage
conditions have been carried out in our laboratories.
Based on the results of these tests, the following can be stated:
Reference conditions:
ambient temperature: (40 ± 2) °C
relative humidity: 90 % to 95 %
electrical stress: 0 V rated voltage (UR), RFI safety cap 100 % UR
Failure criteria:
Failure tests:
short circuit (R  1 G) or short circuit (R  3 G RFI safety caps)
class 1 capacitors: l = 500 FIT
class 2 capacitors: l = 500 FIT
By derating the voltage load, greatly increased reliability can be predicted.
Temperature, up to the maximum category temperature, is not believed to significantly affect the reliability.

CAUTION
1. OPERATING VOLTAGE AND FREQUENCY CHARACTERISTIC
When sinusiodal or ripple voltage applied to DC ceramic disc capacitors, be sure to maintain the peak-to-peak value or the peak
value of the sum of both AC + DC within the rated voltage.
When start or stop applying the voltage, resonance may generate irregular voltage.
When rectangular or pulse wave voltage is applied to DC ceramic disc capacitors, the self-heating generated by the capacitor
is higher than the sinusoidal application with the same frequency. The allowable voltage rating for the rectangular or pulse wave
corresponds approximately with the allowable voltage of a sinusoidal wave with the double fundamental frequency.
The allowable voltage varies, depending on the voltage and the waveform.
Diagrams of the limiting values are available for each capacitor series on request.

2. OPERATING TEMPERATURE AND SELF-GENERATED HEAT
The surface temperature of the capacitors must not exceed the upper limit of its rated operating temperature.
During operation in a high-frequency circuit or a pulse signal circuit, the capacitor itself generate heat due to dielectric losses.
Applied voltage should be the load such as self-generated heat is within 20 °C on the condition of environmental temperature
25 °C.
Note, that excessive heat may lead to deterioration of the capacitor’s characteristics.
