Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
Floating Electrode Design with Flexible Termination
System (FF-CAP), X7R Dielectric, 6.3 – 250 VDC
(Commercial & Automotive Grade)
Overview
KEMET’s Floating Electrode with Flexible Termination
capacitor (FF-CAP) combines two existing KEMET
technologies– Floating Electrode and Flexible Termination.
The floating electrode component utilizes a cascading
internal electrode design configured to form multiple
capacitors in series within a single monolithic structure.
This unique configuration results in enhanced voltage and
ESD performance over standard capacitor designs while
allowing for a fail-open condition if mechanically damaged
(cracked). The flexible termination component utilizes a
conductive silver epoxy between the base metal and nickel
barrier layers of KEMET’s standard termination system
in order to establish pliability while maintaining terminal
strength, solderability and electrical performance. Both
technologies address the primary failure mode of MLCCs–
flex cracks, which are typically the result of excessive
tensile and shear stresses produced during board flexure
and thermal cycling.
The FF-CAP complements KEMET’s Open Mode, Floating
Electrode (FE-CAP), Flexible Termination (FT-CAP) and KEMET
Power Solutions (KPS) product lines by providing an ultimate
fail-safe design optimized for low to mid range capacitance
values. These devices exhibit a predictable change in
capacitance with respect to time and voltage and boast a
minimal change in capacitance with reference to ambient
temperature. Capacitance change is limited to ±15% from
−55°C to +125°C.
In addition to Commercial Grade, Automotive Grade devices
are available which meet the demanding Automotive
Electronics Council's AEC–Q200 qualification requirements.
Although neither technology can eliminate the potential for
mechanical damage that may propagate during extreme
environmental and/or handling conditions, the combination
of these two technologies provide the ultimate level of
protection against a low IR or short circuit condition.

See Insulation Resistance Limit Table
(Rated voltage applied for 120±5 seconds at 25°C)
Regarding Aging Rate: Capacitance measurements (including tolerance) are indexed to a referee time of 1,000 hours.
DWV is the voltage a capacitor can withstand (survive) for a short period of time. It exceeds the nominal and continuous working voltage of the
capacitor.
3
Capacitance and dissipation factor (DF) measured under the following conditions:
1kHz ± 50Hz and 1.0 ± 0.2 Vrms if capacitance ≤10µF
120Hz ± 10Hz and 0.5 ± 0.1 Vrms if capacitance >10µF
4
To obtain IR limit, divide MΩ-µF value by the capacitance and compare to GΩ limit. Select the lower of the two limits.
Note: When measuring capacitance it is important to ensure the set voltage level is held constant. The HP4284 & Agilent E4980 have a feature known as
Automatic Level Control (ALC). The ALC feature should be switched to "ON".

Density Level A: For low-density product applications. Recommended for wave solder applications and provides a wider process window for reflow
solder processes. KEMET only recommends wave soldering of EIA 0603, 0805 and 1206 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).

Soldering Process
Recommended Soldering Technique:
• Solder wave or solder reflow for EIA case sizes 0603, 0805 and 1206
• All other EIA case sizes are limited to solder reflow only
Recommended Reflow Soldering Profile:
KEMET’s families of surface mount multilayer ceramic capacitors (SMD MLCCs) are compatible with wave (single or dual),
convection, IR or vapor phase reflow techniques. Preheating of these components is recommended to avoid extreme thermal
stress. KEMET’s recommended profile conditions for convection and IR reflow reflect the profile conditions of the IPC/
J-STD-020 standard for moisture sensitivity testing. These devices can safely withstand a maximum of three reflow passes
at these conditions.

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 40ºC and maximum
storage humidity not exceed 70% relative humidity. 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.

Capacitor Marking (Optional)
These surface mount multilayer ceramic capacitors are
normally supplied unmarked. If required, they can be
marked as an extra cost option. Marking is available
on most KEMET devices, but must be requested using
the correct ordering code identifier(s). If this option is
requested, two sides of the ceramic body will be laser
marked with a “K” to identify KEMET, followed by two
characters (per EIA–198 - see table below) to identify the
capacitance value. EIA 0603 case size devices are limited
to the “K” character only.
Marking appears in legible contrast. Illustrated below
is an example of an MLCC with laser marking of “KA8”,
which designates a KEMET device with rated capacitance
of 100 µF. Orientation of marking is vendor optional.
