Kemet FT-CAP SMD Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor 10 µF 25 V 1210 Case

The Kemet FT-CAP SMD Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor 10 µF 25 V 1210 Case is a commercial-grade surface-mount multilayer ceramic chip capacitor (SMD MLCC) with a 10 µF capacitance and a 25 V DC voltage rating. Its flexible termination system (FT-CAP) and X7R dielectric are designed to withstand high board flexure and temperature cycling in electronic circuits.

Overview

This capacitor is housed in a compact 1210 (3225 metric) case and offers a ±10% tolerance. It operates across a temperature range from -55°C to +125°C and can handle up to 5 mm of board deflection, helping to mitigate cracking under mechanical stress. As a non-polar device, it minimises the risk of incorrect orientation during installation.
