In addition, the MH Series provides a lead-free, RoHS-compliant solution for customers who have previously been unable to use large case size ceramic capacitors or stacked ceramic capacitor solutions because of thermal, mechanical or environmental concerns.
With the MH Series, we are able to supply customers with a high capacitance MLCC component that is easily placed, surface mountable and mechanically tougher than any competing solutions, said John McCarry, product marketing manager, Ceramic Capacitor Division. The internal ceramic technology used for the MH range gives customers the advantage of extremely low ESR and associated high ripple current capability, in an extremely tough package. The MH Series is rated at up to 100V with a maximum capacitance of 22µF. The operating temperature is -55?C to +125?C.
Applications include, input /output capacitors for industrial and telecoms applications, smoothing circuits, HID, and automotive high CV applications previously impossible due to case size limitations. The MH Series is available in volume with a typical lead time of stock to 12 weeks.
