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.
