A ceramic capacitor is a fixed-value capacitor where the ceramic material acts as the dielectric. It is constructed of two or more alternating layers of ceramic and a metal layer acting as the electrodes. The composition of the ceramic material defines the electrical behavior and therefore applications. Ceramic capacitors are divided into two application classes: Class 1 ceramic c. Since the beginning of the study of electricity non-conductive materials such as glass,, paper and have been used as insulators. These materials some decades later were also well-suited for further use as the. The different ceramic materials used for ceramic capacitors, or ceramics, influences the electrical characteristics of the capacitors. Using mixtures of paraelectric substances based on titaniu. • Basic structure of ceramic capacitors• Construction of a multilayer ceramic chip capacitor (MLCC), 1 = Metallic electrodes, 2 = Dielectric ceramic, 3 = Connecting terminals .
