Surface Mount Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (SMD MLCCs)
High Voltage with Flexible Termination System (HV FT-CAP)
X7R Dielectric, 500 3,000 VDC (Commercial Grade)
Overview
KEMETs High Voltage with Flexible Termination (HV FT-CAP) Combined with the stability of an X7R dielectric and designed

low IR or short circuit failures. Although flexible termination
technology does not eliminate the potential for mechanical
damage that may propagate during extreme environmental
and handling conditions, it does provide superior flex
performance over standard termination systems.
The HV FT-CAP offers low leakage current, exhibits low ESR
at high frequencies and finds conventional use as snubbers
or filters in applications such as switching power supplies
and lighting ballasts. Their exceptional performance at high
frequencies has made them a preferred choice of design
engineers worldwide. In addition to their use in power
supplies, these capacitors are widely used in industries
related to automotive(hybrid), telecommunications, medical,
military, aerospace, semiconductors and test/diagnostic
equipment.
