The company developed five new types of these capacitors that are specifically targeted for powertrains and anti-lock braking systems.

Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) are a passive component that supply needed amounts of power for chips, prevent electromagnetic wave interference, and control current so that it flows uniformly and stably in the circuits of electronic products.

Used in automotive power, safety, comfort and entertainment systems, the traditional gasoline-powered car contains at least 3,000 MLCCs, while high-end electric vehicles may use 10,000 MLCCs. What’s more, as an increasing number of car models become equipped with sophisticated arrangements, such as advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), demand for MLCCs is being pushed to even higher levels.
