High Voltage surface mount MLCCs in C0G dielectric feature a 125°C maximum operating temperature and are considered “stable.” The Electronics Industries Alliance (EIA) characterizes C0G dielectric as a Class I material. Components of this classification are temperature compensating and are suited for resonant circuit applications or those where Q and stability of capacitance characteristics are required. C0G 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/°C from -55°C to +125°C. These devices exhibit low ESR at high frequencies and findconventional use as snubbers or filters in applications suchas switching power supplies and lighting ballasts. Theirexceptional performance at high frequencies has made highvoltage MLCC's the preferred dielectric choice of designengineers worldwide. In addition to their use in powersupplies, these capacitors are widely used in industries relatedto automotive(hybrid), telecommunications, medical, military,aerospace, semiconductors and test/diagnostic equipment.
