Figures 2 and 3 show voltage coefficient and temperature coefficient comparisons between Y5V and X5R material. Voltage and temperature coefficients are not the only 1mV/DIV sources of problems. Some ceramic capacitors have a piezoelectric response. A piezoelectric device generates voltage across its terminals due to mechanical stress, simi- lar to the way a piezoelectric accelerometer or microphone works. For a ceramic capacitor, the stress can be induced V 1ms/DIV 3020 F04 OUT = 1.3V by vibrations in the system or thermal transients.
