To receive MIL-PRF-123 qualification, the MLCCs have passed 4,000 hours of life testing at 125°C at twice the rated voltage, in addition to 1,000 hours of lot acceptance testing. Manufactured in precious metal technology (PMT/NME) with a wet build process and robust design, the devices provide space-level reliability for avionics, sonar, missile, satellite, and global positioning systems.
The MIL-PRF-123 series MLCCs feature maximum voltage to 100V. Devices with a BP dielectric offer low capacitance down to 1.0pF, a Temperature Coefficient of Capacitance (TCC) of 0ppm/°C ±30ppm/°C from -55 to +125°C, and an aging rate of 0% maximum per decade. BX devices provide higher capacitance to 470nF, TCC of ±15% from -55 to +125°C, and an aging rate of 1 % maximum per decade. The MLCCs feature lead (Pb)-bearing terminations (minimum 4%) for tin-whisker-free performance.
