MULTILAYER CERAMIC CHIP CAPACITORS
Commercial grade, MEGACAP type

SERIES OVERVIEW
TDK multilayer ceramic chip capacitor CKG series is a product which metal frames are connected to terminations of MLCC, and it is also called MEGACAP. MEGACAP has higher mechanical endurance by the flexible metal frame structure which absorbs thermal and mechanical stress. Also the stacked type is effective in mounting area reduction because twice capacitance is realized by double-stacked structure without changing footprint.

■ FEATURES
• Higher mechanical endurance is realized by metal frame structure.
• Twice capacitance is realized by double-stacked structure without changing footprint.
• Lower ESR and ESL than Al caps.
• C0G temperature characteristic which has excellent stable temperature and DC-bias characteristcs is applicable.
• Mounting on Al board is applicable.

■ APPLICATIONS
• Smoothing circuits
• DC-DC converters, inverters, battery chargers
• The places where Al electrolytic or Film capacitor is not suitable because of higher ESR/ESL, heat resistivity, or its size.
• Areas where electrolytic capacitors or film capacitors cannot be placed due to high temperatures (e.g., IGBT) around them.
• The C0G temperature characteristic is suitable for the high-reliability circuits such as time constant, filter, resonance, oscillation and snubber circuits.
