| Description & Applications | Communication equipment （cellular phone, wireless applications, etc.） General digital circuit Power supply bypass capacitors Liquid crystal modules Liquid crystal drive voltage lines LSI, IC, converters(both for input and output) Smoothing capacitors DC-DC converters (for both input and output) Switching power supplies (secondary side) Improved higher density mounting.（042 to 105 type） Monolithic structure provides higher reliability. A wide range of capacitance values available in standard case sizes. The use of nickel as electrode material and plating processing improve the solderability and heat resistance characteristics. It also prevents migration and raises the level of reliability. Low equivalent series resistance(ESR) provides superior noise absorption characteristics. Compared to tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors, multilayer ceramic capacitors offer a number of superior features, including: Higher permissible ripple current values ，Smaller case sizes with high rated voltage，Improved reliability due to higher insulation resistance and breakdown voltage |
