Ceramic Temperature Coefficient

In 1 k or k 1.

Ceramic temperature coefficient.

Fine ceramics also known as advanced ceramics have low coefficients of thermal expansion less than half those of stainless steels. That is to say these are c0g characteristics products with a small temperature variance width. Ceramic temperature coefficients specify how much a mlcc s capacitance will change with applied temperature. The first letter gives the significant figure of the change in capacitance over temperature temperature coefficient α in ppm k.

What do they all mean and what do they refer to. C0g x7r x5r u2j etc. Technical data coefficient of thermal expansion.

Very shortly after an engineer s first exposure to mlccs they are quickly confronted with an alphabet soup of letters and numbers. The second character gives the multiplier of the temperature coefficient. Sometimes this coefficient is called the dielectric type each letter of the designation has a meaning as shown these charts. Here α has the dimension of an inverse temperature and can be expressed e g.

The meaning of those letters was created the electronic industries alliance standard number 198 which. The eia rs 198 standard codes ceramic class 1 capacitors with a three character code that indicates temperature coefficient. 30 ppm c 25 c reference within the temperature range of 55 c to 125 c. Temperature compensating type multilayer ceramic capacitors have a small temperature coefficient of electrostatic capacitance max.

The coefficient ratio of thermal expansion indicates how much a material expands per 1 2 2 rise in temperature. Fine ceramics typically have a low coefficient of thermal expansion which indicates their expansion ratio due to changes in temperature.
