Diverse Markets
Presidio Components provides ceramic capacitors for
high quality commercial, military, space and implant
medical applications. Our customers manufacture
products such as aircraft, missile guidance systems,
switch mode power supplies, phased array radar, high
frequency transponders and receivers, ring laser gyros,
and cochlear implants.
QPL Products & DSCC Approved Test Lab
Presidio Components was initially qualified to MIL-
PRF-55681 in 1984. Since then we have upgraded
our processing line to obtain the highest established
reliability rating of “S” level. We are also qualified on
two additional space level specifications, MIL-PRF-
123 and MIL-PRF-49470 “T” level. And, Presidio
Components is proud to be the first QPL supplier to
MIL-PRF-49467, the high voltage ceramic capacitor
specification. All QPL testing per MIL-STD-202 is
done on site at our DSCC approved test lab. For a list
of environmental test capability, consult the factory.
Standard & Custom Products
If you cannot find a part anywhere else, call Presidio
Components. With more than 70 million parts in
inventory, we have many commercial and military parts
in stock. If you have a custom application, call the
factory. Our custom products include nonstandard part
sizes and voltages, including high voltage, high
temperature, high “Q”, custom leads,
cryogenic ceramics, negative and positive
temperature characteristic ceramics and
piezoelectric formulations. We have a series
of patented microwave and radio frequency
products including patented single layer and
broadband DC blocking caps.

“HOW TO ORDER A STANDARD PART”
HIGH RELIABILITY “HR” CAPACITORS
For applications where reliability, but not full military screening is required, Presidio recommends its high reliability
“HR”
capacitors. The “HR” code signifies use of the test program below, or the use of a customer Source Control
Document (SCD) that includes voltage conditioning.
QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS
Every lot undergoes the following inspection and tests:
a) Voltage Conditioning —
All parts receive a voltage
conditioning at 2X rated voltage and 125°C for a minimum
of 8 hours. An accelerated voltage conditioning, following
MIL-PRF-55681 guidelines, may be used at Presidio’s
discretion.
b) Capacitance —
All parts are tested at 25°C and
1VACRMS in accordance with Method 305 of MIL-STD-
202.
c) Dissipation Factor (DF) —
See following table:

Level 1 AQL 1% in accordance with this
catalog.
h) Element Evaluation (optional) —
A MIL-PRF-38534
Appendix C Passive Element Class H element evaluation
is available where the customer requires this testing.
Element evaluation is not required on each lot, and must
be specified on the purchase order.
