STACKED FILM CONSTRUCTION
Our SMD Film capacitors (CB series) are using stacked tech-
nology with metallized plastic film, which forms the basis for
the capacitive element. Combined with the nacked design
choice, it gives our products an again better self-healing
capability as well as a very good capacitance per volume
ratio. This also means that internal construction of the multi-
layer stack, usually hidden in encapsulated film capacitors
design, is visible at the cut edges in the surface mount con-
figuration. In a typical film capacitor stack, hundreds of film
layers are compacted during manufacture. Under a micro-
scope these have the appearance of pages in a book.
Subsequent manufacturing and pcb assembly processes
allow a small amount of relaxation in these layers. In some
cases, small gaps between layers may become visible. These
are referred to as microgaps, and their occurrence is a stan-
dard feature of this technology. Even if it can be considered
an cosmetic issue, presence of these gaps has no effect at all
on mechanical or electrical performance or reliability. (Detailed
report is available upon request.)

TAPE & REEL CHARACTERISTICS
In accordance with IEC 286 and EIA 481, the material used:
Carrier tape: Antistatic Material
Cover tape: Polyester
Reel: Recyclable Material
Parts in bulk or on reel are packed in hermetically sealed
plastic bags.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Once the sealed bag is opened, the capacitors must be
stored in a dry atmosphere until soldering.
Recommended storage conditions are:
PET & PEN: < 30°C and R.H.<60% for a maximum of
168 hours
PPS:
< 30°C and R.H.<60% for a maximum of
4 weeks
The use-by date is 3 years if kept in origin plastic bags.
In case of storage outside the conditions recommended
above the capacitors must be dried prior to soldering.
Recommended drying conditions are:
48 hours minimum at 60°C and RH < 10%.
