KEMET VW80808 series

KEMET and the ceramic product business unit announces release of new VW80808 high voltage on X7R dielectric automotive grade. The KEMET high voltage VW80808 automotive grade flexible termination (FT-CAP) multilayer ceramic capacitors in X7R dielectric are suited for a variety of applications requiring proven, reliable performance in harsh-environment conditions. Whether automotive under hood or in-cabin, these devices emphasize the vital and robust nature of capacitors required for mission and safety of critical automotive subsystems and are compliant with AEC-Q200 and VW80808 specifications. These devices use flexible termination technology that inhibits the transfer of board stress to the rigid ceramic body, therefore mitigating flex cracks, which can result in low IR or short circuit failures.
