What are gold/silver termination options for HVC HV ceramic capacitors?

Yes, HVC Capacitor provides both gold (Au) and silver (Ag) termination plating options for high voltage ceramic disc and doorknob capacitors to optimize contact resistance and solderability based on application requirements.

* Silver Termination (Standard): Cost-effective Ag-plated terminations suitable for most industrial applications with conventional Sn-Pb or lead-free reflow/wave soldering processes. Offers excellent conductivity and reliable long-term performance.

* Gold Termination (Premium): Optional Au flash over nickel barrier layer for ultra-low contact resistance (<5mΩ) and superior oxidation resistance. Recommended for high-reliability medical, aerospace, and defense applications where terminations may be exposed to harsh environments or require wire-bonding attachment.

Both termination types undergo HVC's rigorous 150%-200% flash voltage testing and are compatible with standard PCB pad geometries.
