MLCCs with extensive choice of packages enable optimized placement

The MSAS series of multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) from TAIYO YUDEN are available in high-dielectric, temperature-compensated, and medium- to high-voltage variants supporting a wide range of applications.

The broad range of surface-mount package options offered by TAIYO YUDEN’s MSAS series enables ideal capacitor placement to suit the EMC requirements of PCB designs. The smallest models are available with a 0.24 mm x 0.125 mm footprint for the most densely populated boards. The largest, at 4.5 mm x 3.2 mm, provides for wider trace separations. 

 

TAIYO YUDEN offers MSAS multilayer ceramic capacitors in packages with a thickness ranging from 0.125 mm to 2.5 mm, and in options for reverse length and width to suit different mounting requirements. This makes them ideal for product designs in which the board layout poses a difficult challenge.
