MD Series Medical-Grade Capacitors

Knowles Precision Devices' MD series are a range of medical-grade capacitors for implantable designs, including C0G, X7R, and X5R monolithic ceramic chips. The catalog for implantable device applications features up-screened components and detailed specs to ease the selection process. The series is designed to offer a broad variety of medical-grade capacitors. With clear, comprehensive specifications, engineers can have confidence in the compatibility and quality of their selections.

Knowles Precision Devices has built a legacy in testing and screening for medical applications, and the MD series can be screened using two long-standing MIL-SPECs: MIL-PRF-55681 (Group A) and MIL-PRF-123 (Group A). In addition to the MD series distinction, the catalog indicates chip size, dielectric, capacitance, tolerance, voltage VDWC, termination, high-reliability testing, packing option(s), and screening. Beyond Group A, all screening options are tailored for selectable-combination testing, thus reducing or eliminating the cost associated with developing and maintaining device-specific documentation packages and better preserving each component’s performance integrity through design and manufacturing.
