• High capacitance has been achieved through precision
technologi es that enable t he use of m ul t i pl e thinner
ceramic dielectric layers.
• A monolithic structure ensures superior mechanical
strength and reliability.
• High-accuracy automatic mounting is facilitated through
the maintenance of very precise dimens i onal tolerances .
• Composed of only ceramics and metals, these
capacitors provide extremely dependable performance,
exhibit ing virtually no degradation even when subjec ted to
temperature ex tremes.
• Low stray capacitance ensures high conformity with
nominal values, thereby simplifying the circuit design
process.
• Low residual inductance assures superior frequency
characteristics.
• Because electrostatic capacity has been obtained up to
the electrolytic capacitor range, these capacitors offer
long servi ce life and are optimal l y suited for power s uppl y
designs that require high levels of reliability.
• Owing to their low ESR and excellent frequency
characteri stic s, these product s are opti m al l y suited for
high frequency and high-dens i t y type power supplies.

Internal Codes
The capacitance is expressed in three di gi t
codes and in units of pico Farads (pF). The firs t
and second digits identify the first and second
signif i cant figures of the capacit ance. The thi rd
digit identifies the multiplier. R designates a
decimal point.
