High Reliability Products for

With the development of electric and hybrid vehicles, autonomous driving and the sophistication of information devices such as telematics, requirements are on the rise for high reliability and enhanced characteristics.

Our components, made from optimal materials, for the automotive electrical market are "qualified for AEC-Q200 test standards and IATF16949 certification," and "optimally designed to achieve long lifetime and low failure rates."

About Regulation

AEC-Q200
- AEC-Q100: integrated circuits (IC)
- AEC-Q101: discrete semiconductor components (transistors, diodes, etc.)
- AEC-Q200: passive components (capacitors, inductors, etc.)
AEC-Q200 features
Establishes standards for high reliability, including high temperature/ high humidity resistance, thermal shock resistance, and durability.
IATF16949
（management system standard for the automobile industry）

IATF16949 is a quality management system standard for the automobile industry issued by the IATF (International Automotive Task Force). TAIYO YUDEN plants have received IATF16949 certification not only in Japan, but also in South Korea, China, Philippines, and Malaysia. These plants manufacture a broad range of High Reliability Products. The multipolarization (decentralization) of manufacturing sites minimizes the risk of natural disasters and international conflicts; and utilizes the geographical advantage of being close to customers (consumption area) to establish SCM (supply system) which can deliver products more quickly.

Soft Termination Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors
Use of a conductive resin for the external electrode suppresses:
- the generation of cracks as the bending stress of the substrate is relieved.
- the solder deterioration caused by thermal shock as the the difference in the expansion ratio between the substrate and the component is absorbed.
