Multilayer ceramic capacitors consist of formulated dielectric materials cast into thin layers, interspersed with metal electrodes alternately exposed on opposite edges. The entire structure is fired at high temperature to produce a monolithic block providing high capacitance in a small volume. Conductive terminations are applied after firing. They are offered in three main temperature characteristics: C0G (Class I, stable, low volumetric efficiency), X7R (Class II, stable, ±15% capacitance change), and Z5U (Class III, high volumetric efficiency, ±22%/-56% capacitance change). Key electrical properties include dissipation factor, insulation resistance, dielectric withstanding voltage (250% of rated voltage), and impedance characteristics. They are non-polar and suitable for DC applications.
