C0G (NP0) Dielectric
General Specifications
C0G (NP0) is the most popular formulation of the “temperature-compensating,” EIA Class I ceramic materials. Modern
C0G (NP0) formulations contain neodymium, samarium and
other rare earth oxides.
C0G (NP0) ceramics offer one of the most stable capacitor
dielectrics available. Capacitance change with temperature
is 0 ±30ppm/°C which is less than ±0.3% ∆ C from -55°C
to +125°C. Capacitance drift or hysteresis for C0G (NP0)
ceramics is negligible at less than ±0.05% versus up to
±2% for films. Typical capacitance change with life is less
than ±0.1% for C0G (NP0), one-fifth that shown by most
other dielectrics. C0G (NP0) formulations show no aging
characteristics.
The C0G (NP0) formulation usually has a “Q” in excess
of 1000 and shows little capacitance or “Q” changes with
frequency. Their dielectric absorption is typically less than
0.6% which is similar to mica and most films.

X7R Dielectric
General Specifications
X7R formulations are called “temperature stable” ceramics
and fall into EIA Class II materials. X7R is the most popular
of these intermediate dielectric constant materials. Its temperature variation of capacitance is within ±15% from
-55°C to +125°C. This capacitance change is non-linear.
Capacitance for X7R varies under the influence of electrical
operating conditions such as voltage and frequency.
X7R dielectric chip usage covers the broad spectrum of
industrial applications where known changes in capacitance due to applied voltages are acceptable.

Z5U Dielectric
General Specifications
Z5U formulations are “general-purpose” ceramics which are
meant primarily for use in limited temperature applications
where small size and cost are important. Z5U show wide
variations in capacitance under influence of environmental
and electrical operating conditions.
Despite their capacitance instability, Z5U formulations
are very popular because of their small size, low ESL, low
ESR and excellent frequency response. These features are
particularly important for decoupling application where only a
minimum capacitance value is required.

Y5V Dielectric
General Specifications
Y5V formulations are for general-purpose use in a limited
temperature range. They have a wide temperature characteristic of +22% –82% capacitance change over the operating
temperature range of –30°C to +85°C.
Y5V’s high dielectric constant allows the manufacture of the
highest capacitance value in a given case size.
These characteristics make Y5V ideal for decoupling applications within limited temperature range.

High Voltage Chips
For 500V to 5000V Applications
High value, low leakage and small size are difficult parameters to obtain in capacitors for high voltage systems. AVX
special high voltage MLC chips capacitors meet these performance characteristics and are designed for applications
such as snubbers in high frequency power converters, resonators in SMPS, and high voltage coupling/DC blocking.
These high voltage chip designs exhibit low ESRs at high
frequencies.
High voltage chips are typically larger than standard voltage rated chips. These larger sizes require that special
precautions be taken in applying these chips in surface
mount assemblies. This is due to differences in the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) between the substrate
materials and chip capacitors.

General Description
Basic Construction – A multilayer ceramic (MLC) capacitor is a monolithic block of ceramic containing two sets of
offset, interleaved planar electrodes that extend to two
opposite surfaces of the ceramic dielectric. This simple
Ceramic Layer
structure requires a considerable amount of sophistication,
both in material and manufacture, to produce it in the quality
and quantities needed in today’s electronic equipment.

Formulations – Multilayer ceramic capacitors are available
in both Class 1 and Class 2 formulations. Temperature
compensating formulation are Class 1 and temperature
stable and general application formulations are classified
as Class 2.
Class 1 – Class 1 capacitors or temperature compensating
capacitors are usually made from mixtures of titanates
where barium titanate is normally not a major part of the
mix. They have predictable temperature coefficients and
in general, do not have an aging characteristic. Thus they
are the most stable capacitor available. The most popular
Class 1 multilayer ceramic capacitors are C0G (NP0)
temperature compensating capacitors (negative-positive
0 ppm/°C).
36
Margin
Electrodes
Class 2 – EIA Class 2 capacitors typically are based on the
chemistry of barium titanate and provide a wide range of
capacitance values and temperature stability. The most
commonly used Class 2 dielectrics are X7R and Y5V. The
X7R provides intermediate capacitance values which vary
only ±15% over the temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. It
finds applications where stability over a wide temperature
range is required.
The Y5V provides the highest capacitance values and is
used in applications where limited temperature changes are
expected. The capacitance value for Y5V can vary from
22% to -82% over the -30°C to 85°C temperature range.
The Z5U dielectric is between X7R and Y5V in both stability
and capacitance range.
All Class 2 capacitors vary in capacitance value under the
influence of temperature, operating voltage (both AC and
DC), and frequency. For additional information on performance changes with operating conditions, consult AVX’s
software, SpiCap.

Effects of Voltage – Variations in voltage have little effect
on Class 1 dielectric but does affect the capacitance and
dissipation factor of Class 2 dielectrics. The application of
DC voltage reduces both the capacitance and dissipation
factor while the application of an AC voltage within a
reasonable range tends to increase both capacitance and
dissipation factor readings. If a high enough AC voltage is
applied, eventually it will reduce capacitance just as a DC
voltage will. Figure 2 shows the effects of AC voltage.

Figure 5
Effects of Time – Class 2 ceramic capacitors change
capacitance and dissipation factor with time as well as temperature, voltage and frequency. This change with time is
known as aging. Aging is caused by a gradual re-alignment
of the crystalline structure of the ceramic and produces an
exponential loss in capacitance and decrease in dissipation
factor versus time. A typical curve of aging rate for semistable ceramics is shown in Figure 6.
If a Class 2 ceramic capacitor that has been sitting on the
shelf for a period of time, is heated above its curie point,
(125°C for 4 hours or 150°C for 1⁄2 hour will suffice) the part
will de-age and return to its initial capacitance and dissipation factor readings. Because the capacitance changes
rapidly, immediately after de-aging, the basic capacitance
measurements are normally referred to a time period sometime after the de-aging process. Various manufacturers use
different time bases but the most popular one is one day
or twenty-four hours after “last heat.” Change in the aging
curve can be caused by the application of voltage and
other stresses. The possible changes in capacitance due to
de-aging by heating the unit explain why capacitance
changes are allowed after test, such as temperature cycling,
moisture resistance, etc., in MIL specs. The application of
high voltages such as dielectric withstanding voltages also
37

tends to de-age capacitors and is why re-reading of capacitance after 12 or 24 hours is allowed in military specifications after dielectric strength tests have been performed.

Effects of Frequency – Frequency affects capacitance
and impedance characteristics of capacitors. This effect is
much more pronounced in high dielectric constant ceramic
formulation that is low K formulations. AVX’s SpiCap software generates impedance, ESR, series inductance, series
resonant frequency and capacitance all as functions of frequency, temperature and DC bias for standard chip sizes
and styles. It is available free from AVX.
38
Effects of Mechanical Stress – High “K” dielectric
ceramic capacitors exhibit some low level piezoelectric
reactions under mechanical stress. As a general statement,
the piezoelectric output is higher, the higher the dielectric
constant of the ceramic. It is desirable to investigate this
effect before using high “K” dielectrics as coupling capacitors in extremely low level applications.
Reliability – Historically ceramic capacitors have been one
of the most reliable types of capacitors in use today.
The approximate formula for the reliability of a ceramic
capacitor is:
X
Tt
To
Y
Tt = test temperature and
To = operating temperature
in °C
X,Y = see text
Historically for ceramic capacitors exponent X has been
considered as 3. The exponent Y for temperature effects
typically tends to run about 8.
A capacitor is a component which is capable of storing
electrical energy. It consists of two conductive plates (electrodes) separated by insulating material which is called the
dielectric. A typical formula for determining capacitance is:
C = .224 KA
t
C = capacitance (picofarads)
K = dielectric constant (Vacuum = 1)
A = area in square inches
t = separation between the plates in inches
(thickness of dielectric)
.224 = conversion constant
(.0884 for metric system in cm)
Capacitance – The standard unit of capacitance is the
farad. A capacitor has a capacitance of 1 farad when 1
coulomb charges it to 1 volt. One farad is a very large unit
and most capacitors have values in the micro (10-6), nano
(10-9) or pico (10-12) farad level.
Dielectric Constant – In the formula for capacitance given
above the dielectric constant of a vacuum is arbitrarily chosen as the number 1. Dielectric constants of other materials
are then compared to the dielectric constant of a vacuum.
Dielectric Thickness – Capacitance is indirectly proportional to the separation between electrodes. Lower voltage
requirements mean thinner dielectrics and greater capacitance per volume.
Area – Capacitance is directly proportional to the area of
the electrodes. Since the other variables in the equation are
usually set by the performance desired, area is the easiest
parameter to modify to obtain a specific capacitance within
a material group.
General Description
Energy Stored – The energy which can be stored in a
capacitor is given by the formula:
I (Ideal)
I (Actual)
E = 1⁄2CV2
E = energy in joules (watts-sec)
V = applied voltage
C = capacitance in farads
Potential Change – A capacitor is a reactive component
which reacts against a change in potential across it. This is
shown by the equation for the linear charge of a capacitor:
I ideal = C dV
dt
Loss
Angle
Phase
Angle
␦
f
V
IR s
In practice the current leads the voltage by some other
phase angle due to the series resistance RS. The complement of this angle is called the loss angle and:
where
I = Current
C = Capacitance
dV/dt = Slope of voltage transition across capacitor
Thus an infinite current would be required to instantly
change the potential across a capacitor. The amount of
current a capacitor can “sink” is determined by the above
equation.
Equivalent Circuit – A capacitor, as a practical device,
exhibits not only capacitance but also resistance and inductance. A simplified schematic for the equivalent circuit is:
C = Capacitance
L = Inductance
Rp = Parallel Resistance
Rs = Series Resistance
Power Factor (P.F.) = Cos f or Sine ␦
Dissipation Factor (D.F.) = tan ␦
for small values of ␦ the tan and sine are essentially equal
which has led to the common interchangeability of the two
terms in the industry.
Equivalent Series Resistance – The term E.S.R. or
Equivalent Series Resistance combines all losses both
series and parallel in a capacitor at a given frequency so
that the equivalent circuit is reduced to a simple R-C series
connection.
RP
E.S.R.
L
C
Reactance – Since the insulation resistance (Rp) is normally
very high, the total impedance of a capacitor is:
Z=
where
C
RS
冑
The watts loss are:
Watts loss = (2 π fCV2 ) (D.F.)
R 2S + (XC - XL )2
Z = Total Impedance
Rs = Series Resistance
XC = Capacitive Reactance =
XL = Inductive Reactance
Dissipation Factor – The DF/PF of a capacitor tells what
percent of the apparent power input will turn to heat in the
capacitor.
Dissipation Factor = E.S.R. = (2 π fC) (E.S.R.)
XC
1
2 π fC
= 2 π fL
The variation of a capacitor’s impedance with frequency
determines its effectiveness in many applications.
Phase Angle – Power Factor and Dissipation Factor are
often confused since they are both measures of the loss in a
capacitor under AC application and are often almost identical in value. In a “perfect” capacitor the current in the
capacitor will lead the voltage by 90°.
Very low values of dissipation factor are expressed as their
reciprocal for convenience. These are called the “Q” or
Quality factor of capacitors.
Parasitic Inductance – The parasitic inductance of capacitors is becoming more and more important in the decoupling of today’s high speed digital systems. The relationship
between the inductance and the ripple voltage induced on
the DC voltage line can be seen from the simple inductance
equation:
V = L di
dt
39
General Description
di
The dt seen in current microprocessors can be as high as
0.3 A/ns, and up to 10A/ns. At 0.3 A/ns, 100pH of parasitic
inductance can cause a voltage spike of 30mV. While this
does not sound very drastic, with the Vcc for microprocessors decreasing at the current rate, this can be a fairly large
percentage.
Another important, often overlooked, reason for knowing
the parasitic inductance is the calculation of the resonant
frequency. This can be important for high frequency, bypass capacitors, as the resonant point will give the most
signal attenuation. The resonant frequency is calculated
from the simple equation:
1
fres =
2␲冑LC
Insulation Resistance – Insulation Resistance is the resistance measured across the terminals of a capacitor and
consists principally of the parallel resistance R P shown in
the equivalent circuit. As capacitance values and hence the
area of dielectric increases, the I.R. decreases and hence
the product (C x IR or RC) is often specified in ohm farads
or more commonly megohm-microfarads. Leakage current
40
is determined by dividing the rated voltage by IR (Ohm’s
Law).
Dielectric Strength – Dielectric Strength is an expression
of the ability of a material to withstand an electrical stress.
Although dielectric strength is ordinarily expressed in volts, it
is actually dependent on the thickness of the dielectric and
thus is also more generically a function of volts/mil.
Dielectric Absorption – A capacitor does not discharge
instantaneously upon application of a short circuit, but
drains gradually after the capacitance proper has been discharged. It is common practice to measure the dielectric
absorption by determining the “reappearing voltage” which
appears across a capacitor at some point in time after it has
been fully discharged under short circuit conditions.
Corona – Corona is the ionization of air or other vapors
which causes them to conduct current. It is especially
prevalent in high voltage units but can occur with low voltages
as well where high voltage gradients occur. The energy
discharged degrades the performance of the capacitor and
can in time cause catastrophic failures.

Component Pad Design
Component pads should be designed to achieve good solder filets and minimize component movement during reflow
soldering. Pad designs are given below for the most common sizes of multilayer ceramic capacitors for both wave
and reflow soldering. The basis of these designs is:
• Pad width equal to component width. It is permissible to
decrease this to as low as 85% of component width but it
is not advisable to go below this.
• Pad overlap 0.5mm beneath component.
• Pad extension 0.5mm beyond components for reflow and
1.0mm for wave soldering.

Component Spacing
Preheat & Soldering
For wave soldering components, must be spaced sufficiently
far apart to avoid bridging or shadowing (inability of solder
to penetrate properly into small spaces). This is less important for reflow soldering but sufficient space must be
allowed to enable rework should it be required.
The rate of preheat should not exceed 4°C/second to
prevent thermal shock. A better maximum figure is about
2°C/second.
For capacitors size 1206 and below, with a maximum
thickness of 1.25mm, it is generally permissible to allow a
temperature differential from preheat to soldering of 150°C.
In all other cases this differential should not exceed 100°C.
For further specific application or process advice, please
consult AVX.

Cleaning
Care should be taken to ensure that the capacitors are
thoroughly cleaned of flux residues especially the space
beneath the capacitor. Such residues may otherwise
become conductive and effectively offer a low resistance
bypass to the capacitor.
Ultrasonic cleaning is permissible, the recommended
conditions being 8 Watts/litre at 20-45 kHz, with a process
cycle of 2 minutes vapor rinse, 2 minutes immersion in the
ultrasonic solvent bath and finally 2 minutes vapor rinse.

General
APPLICATION NOTES
Good solderability is maintained for at least twelve months,
provided the components are stored in their “as received”
packaging at less than 40°C and 70% RH.
Surface mounting chip multilayer ceramic capacitors
are designed for soldering to printed circuit boards or other
substrates. The construction of the components is such that
they will withstand the time/temperature profiles used in both
wave and reflow soldering methods.
Solderability
Handling
Terminations to be well soldered after immersion in a 60/40
tin/lead solder bath at 235 ±5°C for 2±1 seconds.
Chip multilayer ceramic capacitors should be handled with
care to avoid damage or contamination from perspiration
and skin oils. The use of tweezers or vacuum pick ups
is strongly recommended for individual components. Bulk
handling should ensure that abrasion and mechanical shock
are minimized. Taped and reeled components provides the
ideal medium for direct presentation to the placement
machine. Any mechanical shock should be minimized during
handling chip multilayer ceramic capacitors.
Storage
Leaching
Terminations will resist leaching for at least the immersion
times and conditions shown below.

Mildly activated rosin fluxes are preferred. The minimum
amount of solder to give a good joint should be used.
Excessive solder can lead to damage from the stresses
caused by the difference in coefficients of expansion
between solder, chip and substrate. AVX terminations are
suitable for all wave and reflow soldering systems. If hand
soldering cannot be avoided, the preferred technique is the
utilization of hot air soldering tools.
Cooling

It is important to avoid the possibility of thermal shock during
soldering and carefully controlled preheat is therefore
required. The rate of preheat should not exceed 4°C/second
and a target figure 2°C/second is recommended. Although
an 80°C to 120°C temperature differential is preferred,
recent developments allow a temperature differential
between the component surface and the soldering temperature of 150°C (Maximum) for capacitors of 1210 size and
below with a maximum thickness of 1.25mm. The user is
cautioned that the risk of thermal shock increases as chip
size or temperature differential increases.

Natural cooling in air is preferred, as this minimizes stresses
within the soldered joint. When forced air cooling is used,
cooling rate should not exceed 4°C/second. Quenching
is not recommended but if used, maximum temperature
differentials should be observed according to the preheat
conditions above.
Cleaning
Flux residues may be hygroscopic or acidic and must be
removed. AVX MLC capacitors are acceptable for use with
all of the solvents described in the specifications MIL-STD202 and EIA-RS-198. Alcohol based solvents are acceptable
and properly controlled water cleaning systems are also
acceptable. Many other solvents have been proven successful,
and most solvents that are acceptable to other components
on circuit assemblies are equally acceptable for use with
ceramic capacitors.
