Very large ceramic capacitor with mechanical shock resistance

摘要

An improved high capacitance module for multi-layer ceramic capacitors is described. The module contains a flexible substrate comprising at least one first conductive trace and at least one second conductive trace. A first termination trace is in electrical connection with each first trace and a second termination trace is in electrical connection with each second trace. Each capacitor comprises interleaved conductors wherein alternate conductors are terminated to a first external termination and adjacent conductors are terminated to a second external termination. Each capacitor is mounted on the substrate with the first termination in electrical contact with the first trace and the second termination in electrical contact with the second trace. A housing with the substrate is received in the housing. A first lead tab is in electrical contact with the first termination wherein the first lead tab extends from the housing.
