size 0201
FEATURES
High capacitance per unit volume
Supplied in bulk case or
in tape on reel.
APPLICATIONS
Mobile phones
Digital cameras
Camcorders
Tuners.
DESCRIPTION
The capacitor consists of a
rectangularblockofceramicdielectric
in which a number of interleaved
precious metal electrodes are
contained. This structure gives rise to
a high capacitance per unit volume.
Theinnerelectrodesareconnectedto
the two terminations, silver dipped
with a barrier layer of plated nickel
and finally covered with a layer of
plated tin (NiSn). A cross section of
the structure is shown in Fig.1.
