Investigation of the Pastes for Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors Termination

Abstract

Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) have wide application in electronic due to its electrical characteristics: low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and high volume efficiency. One of the MLCC manufacturing problems is the choice of composition for the end pastes. The experimental results of the termination pastes composition influence on the quality high-voltage MLCC investigation are presented. The causes of the defects appearance in the termination are determined, the composition of the termination paste, which ensures the quality contact of the internal electrode with the external, is proposed.
