In our mounting process, capacitors are one of the most common materials, so what is a chip capacitor?

What is a chip capacitor? The chip capacitor is a kind of capacitor material. Chip capacitor full name: multi-layer (laminated, laminated) chip ceramic capacitor, also known as chip capacitor, chip capacity. There are two ways to express the chip capacitance, one is expressed in inch units, and the other is expressed in millimeter units.

What are the application characteristics of the chip capacitor? First, the sheet capacitor and the bottom plate are welded with tin, and the bottom and the bottom plate of the capacitor are tightly combined without any gap. Second, the back of the circuit board has no solder joints, so it will not cause short circuit. On the other hand, chip capacitors are much higher than plug-in capacitors in terms of component and production process costs.

Chip capacitors have medium and high voltage chip capacitors and ordinary chip capacitors. The series voltage has 6.3V, 10V, 16V, 25V, 50V, 100V, 200V, 500V, 1000V, 2000V, 3000V, 4000V chip capacitors. There are two dimensional representations, one is expressed in inches. One is expressed in millimeters, and the models of the chip capacitor series are 0201, 0402, 0603, 0805, 1206, 1210, 1812, 2010, 2225 and so on. The material of the chip capacitor is generally divided into three kinds, NPO,X7R,Y5V NPO This material has the most stable electrical performance, almost does not change with the change of temperature, voltage and time, and is suitable for high frequency circuits with low loss and stability requirements.
