Cautions and warnings
Derating: A “state of the art” application design is essential to achieve failures rates at ppb level.
Do not use designs based on 100% of specified rated values.
AC applications may damage MLCC on a much lower level than DC voltage due to power
dissipation losses.
Mechanical stress - Please note EPCOS “General Technical Information”, “Surface mounting
instructions” and information about the effect of mechanical stress.
ESD - EPCOS recommends the use of varistors.
Further processing - care must be taken using moulding processes.
Combined stresses - the total stress (e.g. DC voltage, AC ripple, pulses and temperature) has to
be taken into account to estimate reliability of MLCC.
