and mechanical stress are a concern. These capacitors
are widely used in automotive circuits as well as power
supplies (input and output filters) and general electronic
applications.
Concerned with flex cracks resulting from excessive
tensile and shear stresses produced during board flexure
and thermal cycling? These devices are available with
KEMET's Flexible termination technology which inhibits the
transfer of board stress to the rigid ceramic body, therefore
mitigating flex cracks which can result in low IR or short

Applications
Typical applications include input side filtering (power plane/bus), high current (battery line) and circuits that cannot
be fused to open when short circuits occur due to flex cracks. Markets include automotive applications that are directly
connected to the battery and/or involve conversion to a 42 V system and raw power input side filtering in power conversion.
