1806Y1000153MXTE01

Overview

The Knowles Syfer 1806Y1000153MXTE01 is a high-reliability multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for surface-mount applications. It features an X7R dielectric material providing a capacitance of 15 nF with a tolerance of ±20%. The component is rated for a DC voltage of 100 VDC and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. Housed in an 1806 (4516 metric) package, it utilizes flexible end terminations to enhance mechanical durability against board flexing.

Feature Summary

• Flexible soft end terminations designed to withstand mechanical stress from board flexing
• High reliability construction suitable for demanding electronic environments
• X7R dielectric stability across a wide operating temperature range

Applications

• Automotive electronics requiring AEC-Q200 compliance
• Board-flex sensitive circuit designs
• General purpose high-reliability surface mount applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix configuration when ordering, as terminal plating and packaging options may vary. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official datasheets prior to integration. Ensure supply chain partners provide traceable documentation for high-reliability requirements. Check current availability as lead times may fluctuate based on production schedules.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring robust mechanical performance under physical stress. The flexible termination technology mitigates crack risks associated with PCB warping or thermal cycling. Ensure the 1806 footprint aligns with existing layout constraints. Verify that the X7R characteristics meet the specific capacitance stability needs of the target circuit design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Knowles Syfer FlexiCap series, which specializes in capacitors with compliant terminations. The series targets industries where standard rigid terminations are prone to failure due to mechanical strain. It represents a solution for enhancing the mechanical integrity of MLCCs in vibration-prone or flex-heavy assemblies.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 1806 package, 100V rating, 15nF value, and flexible termination type. Generic X7R MLCCs without flexible ends are not suitable replacements for flex-sensitive designs.
