Overview
KEMET Electronics Corporation is distinguished as a leading manufacturer of high reliability monolithic ceramic capacitors. These capacitors are recognized for their superior performance, which is achieved through meticulous selection of raw materials, controlled manufacturing processes, and adherence to strict design rules and inspections.
Key Product Requirements
Key aspects of KEMET’s high reliability capacitors include:
- Selected Raw Materials: Materials are carefully chosen for their capability to produce capacitors with optimal electrical parameters and physical integrity. Traceability of materials is maintained throughout production.
- Batch Homogeneity: Production is managed in batches that are consistent in terms of materials, design, and processing.
- Clean Room Processing: Procedures sensitive to particulate contamination are conducted in a clean room environment.
- Special Designs: Design considerations, such as dielectric thickness, are strictly followed.
- Destructive Physical Analysis (DPA): Each batch undergoes DPA, with records and reports maintained and provided with shipped products.
- C-SAM Screening: Optional surface acoustic microscopy can be utilized to detect voids or delaminations within the capacitors.
- Batch Performance Monitoring: Electrical characteristics of production batches are tested, with anomalous batches being rejected.
- Special Customer Requirements: Customizations related to serialization, X-ray plates, packaging, and other requirements are available.
Detailed Specification Insights
The capacitors demonstrate electrical stability that is inversely proportional to their packaging efficiency. Capacitors with COG (BP) temperature characteristics are made from non-ferroelectric materials, offering superior stability but lower packaging efficiency. On the other hand, XZR (BX) types are made from ferroelectric materials like barium titanate, ensuring stable and high packaging efficiency but presenting an “Aging” phenomenon when subjected to temperature changes, especially after exceeding their Curie point.
Quality Control System
The quality of KEMET’s high reliability products is governed by internal documents under revision control, including Manufacturing Instructions, Inspector Operating Documents, Raw Material Specifications, and Customer Specifications. These documents dictate the process flow, test procedures, material specifications, and translate customer drawings into the required modifications. The KEMET Quality Manual and various Quality Operating Documents, all requiring specific approval signatures, ensure total quality management.
