High Voltage MLCC: HVA-Series (NPO)

These high voltage ceramic capacitors are designed with alternating layers of high K ceramic dielectric materials and internal palladium/silver internal electrodes and co-fired with advanced ceramic manufacturing technology into a homogeneous body. The high K dielectric materials allow for extended capacitance ranges in any given size and voltage rating.
Typical applications include snubbers in power converters, isolation and surge protection in telecommunications applications, and high voltage coupling and DC blocking.
