The AVX multilayer ceramic capacitors with EIA class II, X5R dielectric material are high capacitance ceramic chip capacitors for general purpose applications. This multilayer ceramic capacitor is a monolithic block of ceramic containing two sets of offset, interleaved planar electrodes that extend to two opposite surfaces of ceramic dielectric. These capacitors are well suited for decoupling and filtering applications.
The TDK C series commercial grade multilayer ceramic chip capacitor is Class 2, X5R dielectric material with perfect layering technique which ensures the precise placing of dielectric and electrode layers as well as the multilayer technology. High capacitance has been achieved through precision technologies that enable the use of multiple thinner ceramic dielectric layers. Typical applications include smoothing and decoupling circuits.
