Some of the leading players are there in the market are Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd., TDK Corporation, Taiyo Yuden Co., Ltd., AVX Corporation, Vishay Intertechnology, Inc., and many others.
- November 2023: Kyocera AVX has introduced the KGK series of capacitors that comply with Class X1/Y2 standards and the KGH series of capacitors that comply with Class X2 standards. These capacitors, with a voltage rating of 250 VAC, are designed to meet the requirements set by EN 60384-14, IEC 60384-14, and UL 60384-14 standards. They offer surge and transient protection and EMI filtering, making them suitable for use in various consumer and industrial devices such as modems and fax machines.
- September 2023: TDK Corporation has introduced an enhanced version of its CN series of multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) that boasts an innovative and distinctive design. In contrast to conventional soft termination MLCCs, where the entire terminal electrodes are coated with resin layers, this new design incorporates resin layers only on one side that is mounted on a board. Moreover, TDK Corporation has also expanded its product range by introducing the CNA series (automotive grade) and CNC series (commercial grade) to cater to the growing demand for MLCCs with larger capacitances.
