Vehicle electrification is a key driver of demand for ceramic capacitors used in power conversion, battery management, onboard charging, and electronic control systems. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global electric car sales exceeded 20 million in 2025, accounting for approximately 25% of new cars sold worldwide. This expansion in electric mobility is increasing the importance of electronic systems that rely on capacitors for filtering, voltage stabilization, and power management. Demand for ceramic capacitors varies with vehicle design, electronic content, and component specifications.

Electric Vehicle Adoption Strengthens Demand for Ceramic Capacitors

Vehicle electrification is an important demand driver for ceramic capacitors because electric powertrains, battery-management systems, onboard chargers, and electronic control units require components for power conversion, signal conditioning, and circuit protection. According to the International Energy Agency’s Global EV Outlook 2026, global electric car sales exceeded 20 million in 2025, representing approximately one-quarter of new cars sold worldwide. This official industry statistic illustrates the growing scale of vehicle electrification. As automotive manufacturers incorporate more power electronics and electronic control functions, ceramic capacitors have applications in voltage regulation, filtering, and high-frequency circuits. The extent of demand depends on vehicle architecture, component specifications, and the number and type of electronic systems installed.

Beyond automotive applications, ceramic capacitors are used in telecommunications infrastructure, computing equipment, industrial controls, and consumer electronics. Their electrical characteristics, compact designs, and availability across different capacitance and voltage ratings make them suitable for diverse circuit requirements. Manufacturers continue to develop components that address operating-temperature limits, mechanical stress, voltage requirements, and board-space constraints. These engineering considerations influence product selection across applications and create opportunities for suppliers offering specialized capacitor designs.

Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitors: Supporting High-Density Electronic Designs

Multilayer ceramic chip capacitors (MLCCs) are a central product category in the ceramic capacitor industry. Their layered electrode and ceramic-dielectric construction enables manufacturers to provide different capacitance values, voltage ratings, and temperature characteristics in surface-mount packages. Depending on the design, MLCCs can be used for decoupling, bypassing, filtering, and smoothing voltage fluctuations in electronic circuits. Their surface-mount format supports automated assembly and integration into printed circuit boards used in automotive electronics, communication equipment, computers, and consumer devices.

Product selection depends on the electrical and environmental requirements of the application. Class I ceramic capacitors are used where stable capacitance characteristics are important, while Class II materials can provide higher capacitance in a given component volume. Automotive and industrial applications may also require qualification for temperature exposure, vibration, mechanical stress, and reliability. Manufacturers are therefore developing MLCC portfolios with different dielectric materials, termination structures, and package formats to address circuit-specific requirements. Official product information from describes its ceramic capacitor range and applications across electronic equipment.

Recent Developments

  • In September 2026, TDK Corporation announced an expansion of its CN series of low-resistance, soft-termination multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), featuring 10 ?F capacitance and a 100 V rating in the 3225-package format. Designed for 48 V power lines in AI servers, humanoid robots, electric vehicles, and industrial equipment, the capacitors aim to reduce equivalent series resistance, improve reliability, and support component-count reduction and miniaturization. Mass production was scheduled to begin in September 2026.

  • In July 2026, Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. introduced its DE5 series of automotive safety-certified lead-type disc ceramic capacitors with IEC 60384-14 X1/Y1 certification. Designed for applications including electric-vehicle onboard chargers and power-line noise suppression, the capacitors support higher voltage and impulse withstand requirements than the company's existing DE6 series. The new series meets AEC-Q200 requirements, with mass production scheduled to begin in July 2026.

  • In April 2026, Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. introduced the GCJ21BD72A225KE02, a soft-termination automotive MLCC offering 2.2 ?F capacitance at 100 VDC in an 0805-inch package. Designed for automotive powertrain and safety equipment, the component combines high capacitance and voltage capability with a compact footprint. Its soft-termination structure helps absorb circuit-board flexure stress and reduce cracking, supporting reliability in vehicle electronics.

  • In October 2025, KYOCERA AVX introduced its KGP Series commercial-grade stacked multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) for high-frequency applications across industrial, alternative energy, and downhole oil and gas industries. The series provides higher capacitance within the same mounting area as traditional capacitors, while its low equivalent series resistance and inductance support noise reduction and circuit performance. The capacitors also feature metal lead frames to withstand thermal and mechanical stress and are manufactured without lead or cadmium.
