Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors (SMD MLCCs) for High Power Application CBR Series, C0G Dielectric, Ultra High Q, Low ESR, 6.3VDC-250VDC (RF & Microwave) Preliminary Overview KEMET’s CBR series surface mount multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) in C0G dielectric feature a robust and exceptionally stable base metal electrode dielectric system that provides excellent low loss performance (High Q). These devices offer extremely low ESR and high self-resonance characteristics, and are well suited for resonant circuit applications or those where Q and stability of capacitance characteristics are required. CRF series capacitors exhibits no change in capacitance with respect to time and voltage and boasts a negligible change in capacitance with reference to ambient temperature. Capacitance change is limited to ±30ppm/ºC from -55°C to +125°C. CBR series devices are are suitable for many circuit applications including RF power amplifiers, mixers, oscillators, low noise amplifiers, filter networks, antenna tuning, timing circuits, delay lines and MRI imaging coils.

Recommended for wave solder applications and provides a wider process window for reflow solder processes. KEMET only recommends wave soldering of 0603(1608) and 0805(2012) case sizes. Density Level B: For products with a moderate level of component density. Provides a robust solder attachment condition for reflow solder processes. Density Level C: For high component density product applications. Before adapting the minimum land pattern variations the user should perform qualification testing based on the conditions outlined in IPC standard 7351 (IPC-7351). Storage and Handling Ceramic chip capacitors should be stored in normal working environments. While the chips themselves are quite robust in other environments, solderability 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 – reels may soften or warp, and tape peel force may increase. KEMET recommends that maximum storage temperature not exceed 40 degrees C, and maximum storage humidity not exceed 70% relative humidity. In addition, temperature fluctuations should be minimized to avoid condensation on the parts, and atmospheres should be free of chlorine and sulfur bearing compounds. For optimized solderability, chip stock should be used promptly, preferably within 1.5 years of receipt. © KEMET Electronics Corporation • P.O.
