This article is based on Murata application note on 3-terminal capacitor use to suppress EMI radiated emission noise and improve conducted immunity. Noise-control techniques are becoming increasingly important due to high-speed operation of ICs and electrification of automobiles. This application note introduces examples of using the 3-terminal ceramic capacitor as a filter (feed-through connection) for radiated emission and conducted immunity. Radiated Emission In the recent...

Sumida releases two new part types of its AEC-Q200 SMD shielded metal power inductors. The new CDSM12D63T150 and CDSM70D52T150 are the new AEC-Q200 qualified power inductors. They cover a wide inductance range up to 100uH compared to the existing Sumida offering. To enhance the reliability, wire / termination connection points are located on the outside of the core, while the existing Sumida power SMD...

According to a recent article by Nikkei Asia, the Japanese government is planning to designate advanced electronic components and MLCC as critical goods that will receive support from the state to shore up the supply chain and minimize the fallout from international emergencies. Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) are likely to be included in the designation. MLCCs are used in a wide range of devices such as...
