DESCRIPTION
Sectional specifications
IEC 60384-10 second edition 1989-04;
also based on CECC 32 100
The capacitor consists of a
rectangular block of ceramic
dielectric in which a number of
interleaved precious metal
electrodes are contained. This
structure gives rise to a high
capacitance per unit volume.
Detailed specification
based on CECC 32 101-801
55/125/56
Climatic category (IEC 60068)
Notes
1. Other values below 10 pF and non E12 series are available on request.
2. Also applicable for applications up to 63 V.
The inner electrodes are connected
to 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.
