2 Rated Voltage See the previous pages. The rated voltage is defined as the maximum voltage which may be applied
continuously to the capacitor.
When AC voltage is superimposed on DC voltage, VP-P or VO-P, whichever is
larger, should be maintained within the rated voltage range.
3 Appearance No defects or abnormalities. Visual inspection.
4 Dimension Within the specified dimensions.
Using calipers. (GRM02 size is based on Microscope)
5 Dielectric Strength No defects or abnormalities.
No failure should be observed when 300% of the rated voltage
(ΔC to7U and 1X) or 250% of the rated voltage (R6,R7,C8,E4,F5,L8 and R9)
is applied between the terminations for 1 to 5 seconds, provided the
charge/discharge current is less than 50mA.

Characteristics
(1)Temperature Compensating Type
The temperature coefficient is determind using the capacitance
measured in step 3 as a reference.
When cycling the temperature sequentially from step 1 through
5 (ΔC：+25℃to +125℃,other temp.coeffs.:+25℃to +85℃) the capacitance
should be within the specified tolerance for the temperature coefficient
and capacitance change as Table A-1.
The capacitance drift is caluculated by dividing the differences between
the maximum and minimum measured values in the step 1,3 and 5
by the cap.value in step 3.
Temperature Within the specified
Coefficent tolerance.(Table A-1)

*Not apply to 1X/25V
(2)High Dielectric Constant Type
The ranges of capacitance change compared with the 25℃
value over the temperature ranges shown in the table should be
within the specified ranges.*
Initial measurement for high dielectric constant type
Perform a heat treatment at 150 +0/-10°C for one hour and then set
for 24±2 hours at room temperature.
Perform the initial measure-ment.
10 Adhesive Strength No removal of the terminations or other defect should occur. Solder the capacitor on the test jig (glass epoxy board)shown in
of Termination
Fig.3 using a eutectic solder. Then apply 10N* force in parallel
with the test jig for 10±1sec.
The soldering should be done either with an iron or using the
reflow method and should be conducted with care so that the
soldering is uniform and free of defects such as heat shock.

7.Vibration and Shock
1. Please confirm the kind of vibration and/or shock, its condition, and any generation of resonance.
Please mount the capacitor so as not to generate resonance, and do not allow any impact on the terminals.
2. Mechanical shock due to falling may cause damage or a crack in the dielectric material of the capacitor.
Do not use a fallen capacitor because the quality and reliability may be deteriorated.
3. When printed circuit boards are piled up or handled, the corners of another printed circuit board
should not be allowed to hit the capacitor in order to avoid a crack or other damage to the capacitor.
■Soldering and Mounting
1.Mounting Position
1. Confirm the best mounting position and direction that minimizes the stress imposed on the capacitor during
flexing or bending the printed circuit board.
1-1.Choose a mounting position that minimizes the stress imposed on the chip during flexing
or bending of the board.

2.Information before mounting
1. Do Not re-use capacitors that were removed from the equipment.
2. Confirm capacitance characteristics under actual applied voltage.
3. Confirm the mechanical stress under actual process and equipment use.
4. Confirm the rated capacitance, rated voltage and other electrical characteristics before assembly.
5. Prior to use, confirm the Solderability for the capacitors that were in long-term storage.
6. Prior to measuring capacitance, carry out a heat treatment for capacitors that were in long-term storage.
7.The use of Sn-Zn based solder will deteriorate the reliability of the MLCC.
Please contact our sales representative or product engineers on the use of Sn-Zn based solder in advance.
3.Maintenance of the Mounting (pick and place) Machine
1. Make sure that the following excessive forces are not applied to the capacitors.
1-1. In mounting the capacitors on the printed circuit board, any bending force against them shall be kept
to a minimum to prevent them from any bending damage or cracking. Please take into account the
following precautions and recommendations for use in your process.
(1) Adjust the lowest position of the pickup nozzle so as not to bend the printed circuit board.
(2) Adjust the nozzle pressure within a static load of 1N to 3N during mounting.
[Incorrect]
[Correct]
2.Dirt particles and dust accumulated between the suction nozzle and the cylinder inner wall prevent
the nozzle from moving smoothly. This imposes greater force upon the chip during mounting,
causing cracked chips. Also the locating claw, when worn out, imposes uneven forces on the chip
when positioning, causing cracked chips. The suction nozzle and the locating claw must be maintained,
checked and replaced periodically.

4-1.Reflow Soldering
1. When sudden heat is applied to the components, the [Standard Conditions for Reflow Soldering]
mechanical strength of the components will decrease
because a sudden temperature change causes Infrared Reflow
deformation inside the components. In order to prevent
mechanical damage to the components, preheating is
required for both the components and the PCB board.
Preheating conditions are shown in table 1. It is required to
keep the temperature differential between the solder and
the components surface (ΔT) as small as possible.
2. Solderability of Tin plating termination chips might be
deteriorated when a low temperature soldering profile where
the peak solder temperature is below the melting point of
Tin is used. Please confirm the Solderability of Tin plated
termination chips before use. Vapor Reflow
3. When components are immersed in solvent after mounting,
be sure to maintain the temperature difference (ΔT)
between the component and the solvent within the range
shown in the table 1.

4. Optimum Solder Amount for Reflow Soldering
4-1. Overly thick application of solder paste results in
a excessive solder fillet height.
This makes the chip more susceptible to mechanical
and thermal stress on the board and may cause
the chips to crack. * GRM02/03: 1/3 of Chip Thickness min.
4-2. Too little solder paste results in a lack of adhesive in section
strength on the outer electrode, which may result in
chips breaking loose from the PCB.
4-3. Make sure the solder has been applied smoothly to the end surface to a height of 0.2mm* min.
Make sure not to impose any abnormal mechanical shocks to the PCB.

4-2.Flow Soldering
1. When sudden heat is applied to the components, the [Standard Conditions for Flow Soldering]
mechanical strength of the components will decrease
because a sudden temperature change causes
deformation inside the components. In order to prevent
mechanical damage in the components, preheating should
be required for both of the components and the PCB board.
Preheating conditions are shown in table 2. It is required to
keep temperature differential between the solder and
the components surface (ΔT) as small as possible.
2. Excessively long soldering time or high soldering
temperature can result in leaching of the outer electrodes,
causing poor adhesion or a reduction in capacitance value
due to loss of contact between electrodes and end termination.
[Allowable Soldering Temperature and Time]
3. When components are immersed in solvent after mounting,
be sure to maintain the temperature difference (ΔT)
between the component and solvent within the range
shown in the table 2.
4. Do not apply flow soldering to chips not listed in Table 2.

5. Optimum Solder Amount for Flow Soldering

excessive, the risk of cracking is higher during
