DANSK DSF/PREN IEC 60384-21 PDF

This part of IEC 60384 is applicable to fixed unencapsulated surface mount multilayer capacitors of ceramic dielectric with a defined temperature coefficient (dielectric Class 1), intended for use in electronic equipment. These capacitors have metallized connecting pads or soldering strips and are intended to be mounted on printed boards, or directly onto substrates for hybrid circuits. Capacitors for electromagnetic interference suppression are not included, but are covered by IEC 60384-14. The object of this document is to specify preferred ratings and characteristics and to select from IEC 60384- 1:2021 the appropriate quality assessment procedures, tests and measuring methods and to give general performance requirements for this type of capacitor. Test severities and requirements specified in detail specifications referring to this sectional specification provide specific test severities and requirements of an equal or higher performance level. For further information on the conception of generic, sectional and detail specifications, see IEC 60384-1:2021, INTRODUCTION
