Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
KC-LINK™ with KONNEKT™ Technology for High-Efficiency,
High-Density Power Applications (Commercial & Automotive Grade)
Lead-free
Overview
KEMET's KC-LINK™ with KONNEKT™ technology surface
mount capacitors are designed for high-efficiency and
high-density power applications. KONNEKT high density
packaging technology uses an innovative Transient Liquid
Phase Sintering (TLPS) material to create a surface
mount multi-chip solution for high density packaging. By
utilizing KEMET's robust and proprietary C0G base metal
electrode (BME) dielectric system, these capacitors are
well suited for power converters, inverters, snubbers, and
resonators where high efficiency is a primary concern.
KONNEKT technology enables a low-loss, low-inductance
package capable of handling extremely high ripple
currents with no change in capacitance versus DC voltage
and negligible change in capacitance versus temperature.
With an operating temperature range up to 150°C, these
capacitors can be mounted close to fast switching
semiconductors in high power density applications, which
require minimal cooling. KC-LINK with KONNEKT technology
also exhibits high mechanical robustness compared to
other dielectric technologies, allowing the capacitor to be
mounted without the use of metal frames.
These capacitors can also be mounted in a low-loss
orientation to further increase power handling capability.
The low-loss orientation lowers ESR (Effective Series
Resistance) and ESL (Effective Series Inductance) which
increases ripple current handling capability.

Automotive C-Spec Information
KEMET automotive grade products meet or exceed the requirements outlined by the Automotive Electronics Council.
Details regarding test methods and conditions are referenced in document AEC–Q200, Stress Test Qualification for Passive
Components. These products are supported by a Product Change Notification (PCN) and Production Part Approval Process
warrant (PPAP).
Automotive products offered through our distribution channel have been assigned an inclusive ordering code C-Spec, “AUTO.”
This C-Spec was developed in order to better serve small and medium-sized companies that prefer an automotive grade
component without the requirement to submit a customer Source Controlled Drawing (SCD) or specification for review by a
KEMET engineering specialist. This C-Spec is therefore not intended for use by KEMET OEM automotive customers and are
not granted the same “privileges” as other automotive C-Specs. Customer PCN approval and PPAP request levels are limited
(see details below.)
Product Change Notification (PCN)
The KEMET product change notification system is used to communicate primarily the following types of changes:
• Product/process changes that affect product form, fit, function, and/or reliability
• Changes in manufacturing site
• Product obsolescence

C-Spec
KEMET assigned C-Specs require the submittal of a customer SCD or customer specification for review. For additional information contact KEMET.
Production Part Approval Process (PPAP)
The purpose of the Production Part Approval Process is:
• To ensure that supplier can meet the manufacturability and quality requirements for the purchased parts.
• To provide the evidence that all customer engineering design records and specification requirements are properly
understood and fulfilled by the manufacturing organization.
• To demonstrate that the established manufacturing process has the potential to produce the part.

Soldering Process
Recommended Reflow Soldering Profile
KEMET's KONNEKT family of high density surface mount multilayer ceramic capacitors (SMD MLCCs) are compatible with
convection and IR 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.

Hand Soldering and Removal of KONNEKT Capacitors
The preferred method of attachment for KEMET’s KONNEKT Capacitors is IR or convection reflow where temperature, time
and air flow are well controlled.
However, it is understood that the manual attachment of KONNEKT capacitors is necessary for prototype and lab testing. In
these instances, care must be taken not to introduce excessive temperature gradients in the KONNEKT part type that may
lead to cracking in the ceramic or separation of the TLPS material.
Please see KEMET's KONNEKT Soldering Guidelines here.

Storage & 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°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 upon receipt.
