Capacitors Single Layer

List of technical and application notes relevant to Johanson Technology's Single Layer Capacitors.

What are Johanson Technology single layer capacitor technical notes?
Johanson Technology single layer capacitor technical notes are engineering resources that help RF and microwave design engineers properly handle, store, identify, and prepare single layer capacitors for high-frequency circuit assembly.

The guides cover waffle pack opening procedures, moisture sensitivity level ratings, recommended storage conditions, solderability preservation, part number explanations, and reliability practices for RF, microwave, hybrid circuit, thin-film, aerospace, defense, medical, semiconductor, and high-reliability applications.

Title Purpose / Key Insight
Waffle Pack Opening Procedure
  • Provides step-by-step instructions for safely opening waffle packs used for shipping Johanson components.
  • Ensures parts are not damaged during unpacking and maintains component integrity for assembly.
MSL Rating (Moisture Level Sensitivity)
  • Defines the Moisture Sensitivity Levels (MSL) for Johanson components.
  • Helps manufacturers handle, store, and reflow components without moisture-related damage such as popcorning or delamination.
Recommended Storage Conditions
  • Lists the environmental guidelines (temperature, humidity, packaging) needed for proper capacitor storage.
  • Preserves solderability, prevents oxidation, and ensures long-term reliability before use.
Part Number Explanation
  • Breaks down Johanson’s capacitor part numbering system into clear segments.
  • Each section of the code represents attributes such as dielectric, capacitance value, tolerance, case size, termination, and voltage rating.
