Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor
■ INTRODUCTION
MLCC(Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor) is SMD(Surface Mounted Device) type capacitor that is used in wide ranges of capacitance. MLCC is paid more attentions than other capacitors due to the better frequency characteristics, higher reliability, higher withstanding voltage and so on. MLCC is made of many layers of ceramic and inner electrodes like sandwich. Pd was used for inner electrodes. But the price of Pd was skyrocketed and Pd was replaced by the BME(Base Metal Electrode), which reduced the total cost of MLCC.
