Buyer FAQ

What matters when choosing MLCCs for a motor driver?
Use X7R or X7S dielectrics for decoupling, derate voltage (capacitance drops with DC bias), and choose larger case sizes or soft-termination parts where the board flexes or sees vibration.
Are domestic brands acceptable?
Yes for most general positions; major Chinese makers supply consumer and industrial customers. Qualify each part number and keep second sources, especially for capacitors that have had long lead times.
How do I avoid counterfeit components?
Buy from the maker or its authorised distributors, keep date-code traceability, and inspect reels on arrival. Avoid the spot market for production lots.
