Syfer FlexiCap polymer Termination
Bend it; shape it; don't break it
The FlexiCap™ termination can be applied to many of the Syfer product range, including:
- standard MLCC capacitors
- Surge and Safety capacitors
- 3 terminal EMI chip capacitors
- X2Y chips
- planar capacitor arrays
- is applied to X8R high temperature chips as standard
- also applied to 1206 size SBSP pi-filters as standard
The benefit to the user is to facilitate a wider process window - giving a greater safety margin and substantially reducing the typical root causes of mechanical stress cracking.
Based upon board bend tests in accordance with IEC 60384-1 the amount of board bending required to mechanically crack a polymer terminated capacitor is almost doubled compared with standard terminated capacitors.
FlexiCap™ may be soldered using your traditional wave or reflow solder techniques and needs no adjustment to equipment or current processes. Syfer has delivered millions of FlexiCap™ components and during that time has collected substantial test and reliability data, working in partnership with customers world wide, to eliminate mechanical cracking.
