This structure gives rise to Notes a high capacitance per unit volume. 1. Other values below 10 pF and non E12 series are available on request. The inner electrodes are connected to 2. Also applicable for applications up to 63 V. the two terminations, either by silver palladium (AgPd) alloy, or silver dipped with a barrier layer of plated nickel and finally covered with a layer of plated tin (NiSn).
