TDK Corporation presents the world’s first multilayer chip beads and inductors with the innovative soft-termination technology that is already proven in TDK MLCCs. The external electrodes of the new KMZ1608 and KPZ1608 series of chip beads and the KLZ1608 and KLZ2012 series of inductors feature a conductive resin layer that offers effective protection against board flexure and solder cracks due to mechanical stress during mounting and thermal shock during operation. As a result, these soft-termination automotive-grade components offer high reliability under harsh conditions, even at high operating temperatures up to 150 °C.
