KEMET's FE-CAP is a surface-mount multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed with a unique floating electrode configuration. This innovative design incorporates multiple capacitors in series within a single package, significantly enhancing voltage and electrostatic discharge (ESD) performance compared to standard MLCCs. The FE-CAP's fail-safe design mitigates the risk of low-IR or short-circuit failures often associated with board flex, making it ideal for applications requiring robust and reliable capacitance. Combined with the stability of an X7R dielectric, the FE-CAP provides a fail-safe design optimized for low- to mid-range capacitance values, complementing KEMET's Open Mode Devices and offering a superior solution for various industrial and consumer electronics applications.
