MLCC (Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor) is a type of capacitor that uses ceramic material as its dielectric. It is known for its compact size, high capacitance values, and ability to operate at high frequencies. The ceramic layer in an MLCC is made up of multiple layers of ceramic material, which are stacked together and then metallized on either side to form the capacitor's electrodes. This construction allows MLCCs to have higher capacitance density than other types of capacitors. They are commonly used in a wide range of applications including consumer electronics, automotive systems, and industrial equipment due to their reliability, stability, and compact size.
