Ceramic Capacitors FAQQWhat is the difference between the operating temperature range and the applicable temperature range?

A
The table below shows the difference between the operating temperature range and the applicable temperature range given in the detailed specifications sheet for the multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs).

Operating temperature range Applicable Temperature Range
Temperature Range in Which the Capacitor Can Be Used Continuously Temperature Range That Satisfies the Temperature Characteristics of the Capacitor (Capacitance Change Rate or Temperature Coefficient)

Please check the "Capacitance Temperature Characteristics""Capacitance Temperature Characteristics"
item in the performance and test method on the detailed specifications sheet and Table A for the capacitance change rate outside the applicable temperature range.

Alternatively, refer to the "Temperature Characteristics" item in "Search by Specifications."
