AVX Corporation, a leading manufacturer of advanced passive components and interconnect solutions, has expanded its stacked, surface mount multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) product offering to include the highest capacitance for a given MLCC package. Designated the RH Series, the range extension features 50V and 100V devices with maximum capacitance values of 33uF and 22uF respectively. The advanced capacitor series provides excellent over voltage protection, improves ripple current capability and VC performance compared to other high capacitance MLCCs, while offering low ESR.


Featuring a stress relieving lead frame, the RH Series is ideal for any application requiring board stress relief. Suitable for military and aerospace applications, the RH Series can be used as an input and output filter capacitor in high frequency DC-DC converter applications above 10W, where high volume and low cost is required.

“As a leader in MLCC technology, AVX has developed an advanced solution that provides at least two times the capacitance in a given package compared to other SMPS capacitor products,” said Connie Houghtaling, product manager at AVX. “In addition, the RH Series provides volume and weight reduction compared to the currently available products.”

The RH Series is available in RoHS and non-RoHS versions, and come in tape and reel packaging or waffle trays.

The RH Series has a typical lead time of 12 weeks.
