The TDK CGA series automotive grade class 2 multilayer ceramic chip capacitors. These capacitors are based on X7R dielectric material with perfect layering technique which ensures the precise placing of dielectric and electrode layers as well as the multilayer technology. High capacitance has been achieved through precision technologies that enable the use of multiple thinner ceramic dielectric layers. Typical applications include automotive engine control units, sensor modules, battery line smoothing and switching power supply smoothing.

KEMET’s X7R dielectric features a 125°C maximum operating temperature and is considered “temperature stable.” The X7R dielectric is a Class II material. Components of this classification are fixed, ceramic dielectric capacitors suited for bypass and decoupling applications or for frequency discriminating circuits where Q and stability of capacitance characteristics are not critical. X7R exhibits a predictable change in capacitance with respect to time and voltage and boasts a minimal change in capacitance with reference to ambient temperature. Capacitance change is limited to ±15% from −55°C to +125°C.

The Murata GRM series capacitors are Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors (MLCC) used for general purpose applications. These MLCC capacitors are classified into temperature compensating and high dielectric constant types depending on the change in electrostatic capacitance due to change in temperature. The temperature compensating capacitors feature a small rate of change in electrostatic capacitance as the temperature changes and are used for applications such as filters and high frequency circuit matching. The high dielectric constant capacitors use materials with a high dielectric constant and feature a large electrostatic capacitance. Typical applications are power supply decoupling and smoothing circuits.
