Even among the various types of capacitors, multilayer ceramic capacitors, although small, are available in a wide range of capacitance values, and are used in various circuits for noise removal, smoothing of power supply voltages, filtering, and other applications.
Recently, ceramic capacitors have become indispensible for providing cellphones and televisions with sophisticated functions.
The capacitors feature various capacitance-temperature characteristics and also good high-frequency characteristics.
