KEY POINTS
1. STCs use resonant inductors with resonant
capacitors to create resonant tanks that replace
DC flying capacitors in an SCC. This highly
efficient method of DC-DC power conversion
takes up little space.
2. To optimize PDN design, you must have a deep
understanding of impedance levels across the
entire operating frequency range, the power that
passive components must handle at different
frequencies, and the characteristics of those
passive components.

KEMET Corporation
Up to 10x increase in capacitance versus C0G
Retains over 99% of nominal capacitance at full rated
voltage and small predictable and linear capacitance
change with respect to temperature
AEC-Q200 qautomotive qualified version available as
well as standard and flexible termination options
U2J Commercial-Grade Dielectric
SMD ≤250 V MLCCs
U2J with KONNEKT™ Technology
When combined with KEMET's ultra-stable U2J dielectric,
KONNEKT enables a low-loss, low-inductance package
capable of handling extreamly high ripple currents in the
hundreds of kilohertz
U2J with KONNEKT Technology can be mounted in
a low-loss orientation to further increase its power-
handling capability by lowering ESR and ESL, which
increases ripple current-handling capability
Surface mountable using standard MLCC reflow profiles
