In summary, KEMET’s ceramic leaded technology offers several advantages over ceramic surface mount as well as competitive dielectric technologies. The attached wire lead termination system extends the electrical connection of the capacitor while mechanically isolating the capacitor body from the circuit board. This isolating prevents mechanical and thermal stress damage, reduces the potential for microphonic noise, dampens the sound emission produced by electrostriction and improves vibration capability. Unlike most electrolytic capacitors, ceramic capacitors are non-polar and can be mounted and operated in either orientation without regard to the polarity of the circuit. They can be used in locations where a PCB is not required or in harsh environmental applications that will promote PCB failure. Unlike surface mount capacitors, leaded capacitors can be crimped or welded into a circuit. Due to their wire lead termination systems, they offer unsurpassed mounting versatility with an endless array of lead styles and spacing options. In addition, KEMET ceramic leaded technology offers design engineers improved volumetric efficiency and therefore a space saving alternative to film dielectric capacitors.
