SMD Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor, FE-CAP, 1000 pF, 50 V, 0603 (1608 Metric), +/- 10%, X7R - 

The S series floating electrode Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor in X7R dielectric utilizes a cascading internal electrode design configured to form multiple capacitors in series within a single monolithic structure. This unique configuration results in enhanced voltage and ESD performance over standard capacitor designs while allowing for a fail-open condition if mechanically damaged (cracked). If damaged, the device may experience a drop in capacitance but a short is unlikely. The FE-CAP is designed to reduce the likelihood of a low IR or short-circuit condition and the chance for a catastrophic and potentially costly failure event. Driven by the demand for a more robust and reliable component. The FE-CAP was designed for critical applications where higher operating temperatures and mechanical stress are a concern. These capacitors are manμFactured in state of the art ISO/TS 16949:2009 certified facilities and are widely used in general electronic applications.
