Esr Ceramic Capacitor Kemet

Kemet electronics is a global leader in ceramic capacitor technology providing leading edge solutions for commercial automotive industrial energy and defense and aerospace applications.

Esr ceramic capacitor kemet. Esr determines a capacitor s minimum impedance so it is important to characterize it correctly. With a broad range of dielectrics and form factors kemet s ceramic capacitors are available in a wide variety of grades case sizes voltages and operating temperatures. The dielectric offerings our industry leading class 1 and class 2 dielectric platforms. Ceramic capacitors are used in all applications ranging from commercial to automotive to space.

An over estimate of esr leads to too many capacitors and unnecessary expense. The capacitors are ideal for applications where electro static discharge esd events during assembly or operation could damage the capacitor or the circuit. Ceramic capacitors are the means of doing that between 1 mhz and several hundred mhz. An underestimate of esr can lead to an inadequate power distribution system.

The kemet organic capacitor ko cap is a solid electrolytic capacitor with a conductive polymer cathode capable of delivering ultra low esr and improved capacitance retention at high frequencies.
