The new UT Series from AVX Corporation is targeted at applications where a low profile is vital, such as smart cards, high-density SIM cards, and memory modules. These ultra-thin parts have the same footprint as 0302 devices, but are only as thick as conventional 0201 products. These advanced capacitors retain the same voltage and capacitance ratings as the standard 0402 capacitors. A novel chemical termination system allows very precise and highly repeatable termination thicknesses and dimensions. Parts can be produced that measure just 0.3 mm high with a capacitance value of 10 nF and a voltage rating of up to 25 V. Operating temperature range is -55 to +85 degrees C.Find more product information on the AVX Corporation website.
