Murata introduces metal terminal type MLCCs with high voltage tolerance for large-current snubber circuits in automotive and general-purpose applications

10/1/2020

As the modules of in-vehicle, industry, and electrical equipment have been downsized, and as SiC (Silicon Carbide) with excellent heat resistance have been spreading, electronic components are required to be downsized and endure high temperatures. Since this product employs a low-dissipation factor and temperature compensation type dielectric, it is optimum for downsizing large-current snubber circuits and making them resistant to high temperatures.
