Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official datasheets to confirm dielectric type and termination composition. Ensure compatibility with assembly processes when converting from conventional MLCCs. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements for your manufacturing environment before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when standard MLCCs fail due to mechanical stress or board warping. The FlexiCap design eliminates the need for process changes while offering enhanced durability. Consider the 200V rating and X7R characteristics for filtering or decoupling roles where mechanical resilience is critical.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Knowles Syfer FlexiCap family, distinguished by proprietary flexible termination materials. Unlike standard rigid terminations, these allow greater tolerance to physical stress. The series has received innovation awards and meets stringent qualification standards for aerospace use, ensuring consistent performance in harsh operational conditions.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 1206 footprint, 200V rating, 0.015 µF capacitance, and X7R dielectric. Verify that alternative components also feature flexible terminations if board bending resistance is required. Cross-reference AEC-Q200 qualification if automotive reliability is necessary.
