XY components share many common features with standard multi-layer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) for easy adoption by end-users.
• Same component sizes (0603, 0805, 1206, etc.)
• Same pick and place equipment
• Same dielectric, electrode and termination materials
• Same industry test standards for component reliability
®
A standard multi-layer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) consists of opposing electrode layers A & B. The XY
®
design adds another set of electrode layers (G) which
effectively surround each existing electrode of a two-terminal capacitor. The only external difference is two additional side terminations, creating a four-terminal
capacitive circuit, which allows circuit designers a multitude of attachment options.

Circuit 1: Filtering
When used in circuit 1 configuration the XY
®
filter capacitor is connected across two signal lines. Differential mode noise is filtered to ground by the two Y
capacitors, A & B. Common mode noise is cancelled within the device.

Experts agree that balance is the key to a “quiet” circuit. XY® is a balanced circuit device with two equal
halves, tightly matched in both phase and magnitude with respect to ground. Several advantages are
gained by two balanced capacitors sharing a single ceramic component body.
• Exceptional common mode rejection
• Effects of aging & temperature are equal on both caps
• Effect of voltage variation eliminated
• Matched line-to-ground capacitance
InAmp Input Filter Example
In this example, a single Johanson XY
®
component was used to filter noise at the input of a DC
instrumentation amplifier. This reduced component count by 3-to-1 and costs by over 70% vs.
conventional filter components that included 1% film Y-capacitors.

Circuit 2: Decoupling
When used in circuit configuration, A & B capacitors are placed in parallel effectively doubling the apparent capacitance while maintaining an ultra-low
inductance. The low inductance advantages of the XY® Capacitor Circuit enables high-performance bypass networks at reduced system cost.

filter capacitors employ a unique, patented low inductance design featuring two balanced capacitors
that are immune to temperature, voltage and aging performance differences.
These components offer superior decoupling and EMI filtering performance, virtually eliminate parasitics,
and can replace multiple capacitors and inductors saving board space and reducing assembly costs.
