0402ZD823KAT2A - Kyocera AVX

0402ZD823KAT2A Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended land pattern for this capacitor?
  The recommended land pattern for the 0402ZD823KAT2A capacitor is a rectangular pad with a size of 0.5mm x 0.3mm, with a non-solder mask defined (NSMD) pad shape. This can be found in the AVX Land Pattern Recommendation document.
• How do I handle the capacitor's moisture sensitivity?
  The 0402ZD823KAT2A capacitor is a moisture-sensitive device (MSD) and requires special handling. It should be stored in a dry environment with a relative humidity of less than 30% and a temperature range of 10°C to 30°C. Before reflow soldering, the components should be baked at 125°C for 24 hours to remove any moisture.
• What is the maximum reflow temperature for this capacitor?
  The maximum reflow temperature for the 0402ZD823KAT2A capacitor is 260°C, with a peak temperature of 250°C for a maximum of 10 seconds. Exceeding this temperature can cause damage to the capacitor.
• Can I use this capacitor in a high-vibration environment?
  The 0402ZD823KAT2A capacitor is designed to withstand moderate vibration levels, but it may not be suitable for high-vibration environments. AVX recommends consulting their vibration testing data and performing additional testing to ensure the capacitor's reliability in such environments.
• What is the capacitor's equivalent series resistance (ESR)?
  The ESR of the 0402ZD823KAT2A capacitor is not explicitly stated in the datasheet, but it can be estimated based on the capacitor's impedance and resonant frequency. According to AVX, the ESR is typically around 0.1 ohms at 100 kHz.
