KEMET Expands Industry-Leading X7R 250 Volt Product Portfolio


Greenville, South Carolina, May 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KEMET Corporation (NYSE: KEM), a leading global supplier of electronic components, has expanded its industry-leading X7R 250 volt multilayer ceramic capacitor series to include smaller case sizes and increased capacitance values. These compact surface mount technology footprints benefit designers in saving printed circuit board space while reaching capacitance values up to 0.47 microfarads and case sizes as small as 0603.  

The X7R 250 volt product expansion supports the need for increasingly higher voltages in automotive applications such as lighting, electric charging, sensors and EMI suppression. In addition, 220 volt power systems are common across the globe, and small case size 250 volt X7R capacitors are ideal for high-power, small form factor devices. This series may be combined with KEMET’s flexible termination system to provide mechanical robustness, and complements KEMET’s portfolio of power inductor solutions.
