FT-CAP (6.3 - 250 VDC) - Commercial and Automotive Grades
• Provides superior flex performance over
standard termination systems
• Directs board stress away from the ceramic
body and into the termination area
• Reduces likelihood of low IR or short circuits
failures due to board flex
• Superior flex performance (up to 5 mm)
• Pb-Free and RoHS Compliant
• Ideal for high thermal stress applications

Product Checklist
X7R
• Does your application have a direct battery
or power source connection?
• Is this a critical and safety relevant circuit?
• Is there an integrated current limitation?
• Is your circuit board subject to high levels
of board flexure during assembly, mounting
or depanelization?
• Are you placing MLCCs close to the edges
or corners of your board?
• Are MLCCs being placed near or around
connectors or heavy components?
