Abstract:

A capacitor with a multiplicity of first plates and second plates in parallel relationship wherein the first plates terminate at a first face and the second plates terminate at a second face. A dielectric is between the first plates and the second plates. A first external termination is in electrical contact with the first plates and a second external termination is in electrical contact with the second plates. A first lead terminal is in electrical contact with the first external termination and the first lead terminal has a first foot below the first external termination and a first solder stop coated on the first foot between the first foot and the first external termination. A second lead terminal is in electrical contact with the second external termination wherein the second lead terminal comprises a second foot below the second external termination and a second solder stop is coated on the second foot between the second foot and the second external termination.
