Replaces IEC 108. This publication also bears the number QC 300600, which is the specification number in the IEC Quality Assessment System for Electronic Components (IECQ).

Applicable to fixed capacitors of ceramic dielectric with a defined temperature coefficient (dielectric Class 1), intended for use in electronic equipment, including leadless capacitors but excluding multilayer ceramic chip capacitors.

Prescribes preferred ratings and characteristics and selects from IEC 384-1 (1982) the appropriate quality assessment procedures, tests and measuring methods and gives general performance requirements for this type of capacitor.
