AVX X8R Capacitors Stand the Heat above All Others.MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. -- AVX AVX Adult Video XXX AVX Avid Visual Extensions AVX anti Virus Expert Corporation (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :AVX), a leading manufacturer of passive components, is developing a range of capacitors specially designed for high temperature applications such as under-hood sensors for the automotive industry The automotive industry is the industry involved in the design, development, manufacture, marketing, and sale of motor vehicles. In 2006, more than 69 million motor vehicles, including cars and commercial vehicles were produced worldwide. and parts used in oil exploration equipment. Manufactured with an X8R dielectric material, which has a capacitance variation of 15 percent between -55(degree)C and +150(degree)C, the capacitors are ideal for use in applications generating temperatures up to 150(degree)C. "The development of the X8R ceramic capacitors was driven by the needs of our customers who couldn't find capacitors that consistently met the requirements of their demanding high temperature applications," said Tim Hollander, AVX product manager. "Providing this series with our FLEXITERM(TM) termination system provides further advantage to customers by offering enhanced resistance to temperature cycling and mechanical damage." FLEXITERM(TM) is a soft termination system that allows almost three times the amount of board flexure flexure /flex·ure/ (flek´sher) a bend or fold; a curvation. caudal flexure the bend at the aboral end of the embryo. cephalic flexure the curve in the midbrain of the embryo. when compared to standard termination systems. AVX offers a guaranteed minimum flexure of 5mm, without internal cracks, versus the industry standard of 2mm. The X8R MLCC MLCC Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor MLCC Michigan Liquor Control Commission MLCC Money Laundering Coordination Center (US Customs Service) MLCC Multi-Layer Chip Capacitor MLCC Modular Life Cycle Cost MLCC Multi Layer Ceramic Chip capacitors provide a highly reliable capacitor with low loss and stable capacitance over temperature. They are ideal for "measure while drilling" and "log while drilling". Typical applications are wire line logging tools such as gamma ray gamma ray Penetrating very short-wavelength electromagnetic radiation, similar to an X-ray but of higher energy, that is emitted spontaneously by some radioactive substances (see gamma decay; radioactivity). receivers, acoustic transceivers and micro-resistivity measurement tools. They can also be used as bulk capacitors for high temperature camera modules. Available as standard as well as Automotive AEC-Q200-qualified parts, the X8R ceramic capacitors have optional termination systems: tin, FLEXITERM(TM) and conductive epoxy for hybrid applications. They are available in voltages from 25V to 50V with capacitance tolerance of +/-5%, +/-10% and +/-20%. Pricing for the X8R capacitors starts at $0.03 in quantities of 10,000. Delivery time is stock to 10 weeks. For more information, contact AVX at 801 17th Avenue South, Myrtle Beach, S.C. 29578; by calling 843-448-9411, by fax at 843-444-2864 or on the Web at www.avx.com.
