Capacitor Arrays Series
1. INTRODUCTION
WTC middle and high voltage series MLCC is designed by a special internal electrode pattern, which can reduce
voltage concentrations by distributing voltage gradients throughout the entire capacitor. This special design also affords
increased capacitance values in a given case size and voltage rating.
WTC capacitor arrays are developed to offer designers the opportunity to lower placement costs increase assembly
line output through lower component count per board.
