ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE STRAINS THE MLCC MARKET

PDC (Prosperity Dielectric Co.) is a company that belongs to the PSA (Passive System Alliance) technology group. It is a manufacturer specializing in the design and production of passive electronic components, standing out primarily in the manufacturing of high-power, large-size multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), as well as chip resistors (chip-R).

 

AI is having a major impact on the supply chain and is completely changing the global technological landscape, and with it, the availability of electronic components. Although the most intense demand for AI-linked infrastructure is currently concentrated in Asia, its impact is already being strongly felt internationally, transforming component availability and lead times.

PDC structures its catalog into two major families of key components, both fully available and qualified for automotive sector applications.

Supply Restrictions and Allocation Risk

As a consequence of growing demand, the global supply base for this type of large-size and high-voltage MLCCs is notably limited. Even though major market brands display seemingly complete catalogs, a very significant portion of their production relies on outsourcing to third parties.

With production lines operating at the limit of their capacity, the market is already experiencing the first consequences: many series and formats have officially entered a supply allocation situation. This means that a large number of manufacturers can no longer guarantee lead times or stable prices, opening the door to prolonged waits and cost volatility.

CRITICAL RECOMMENDATION FOR OUR CUSTOMERS

Due to the severity of the current allocation situation, the message for all our partners and customers is clear: it is essential to plan, place, and schedule orders for delivery as soon as possible.

Planning ahead is the only way to:

• Guarantee material stock: Ensure the physical volume of components required for your production lines.
• Secure lead times and prices: Lock in delivery windows and protect your costs before global market conditions worsen.

Supply is no longer guaranteed through the usual channels of many manufacturers. We invite you to contact our technical and sales team to evaluate your MLCC needs and manage your purchase orders as a priority.

In an industrial context where miniaturization and thermal stability are fundamental, Aldinet announces the addition to its portfolio of the new series of multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) with X8L dielectric, manufactured by Prosperity Dielectrics Co., Ltd. (PDC).

 

Operating in harsh environments is no longer a limiting factor for developers. Compared to traditional dielectrics like X7R, PDC's patented ceramic technology ensures long-term durability, offering extreme stability and reliable performance over an operating temperature range from -55°C to +150°C.

Maximum Industrial Performance at an Optimized Cost for High-Current PCBs

 

In the demanding power electronics sector, efficiency and reliability do not have to be at odds with profitability. At Aldinet, we present an advanced range of power connectors with Press-Fit technology, a solution specifically designed to meet the challenges of printed circuit boards (PCBs) handling high current intensities.

 

The smart alternative to traditional power supplies: AC-DC modules that simplify your design

 

Opting for standard AC-DC modules is establishing itself as the fastest and most reliable way to simplify design and reduce certification costs in critical sectors.

 

At ALDINET, we continue to expand our technological offering to provide solutions that allow our clients to be more competitive. In this regard, the YINGJIAO power supply range is positioned as the strategic partner for engineers looking for smart alternatives to custom developments.

 

ALDINET guarantees continuity and support in Spain and Portugal in light of THINKING's certification update for Canada

 

The transition from CSA to cUL certification in the SCK, TTC05, and TVR series will maintain full regulatory compliance and component performance with zero design impact.

 

ALDINET, the primary distributor and strategic partner in the Iberian Peninsula for THINKING ELECTRONIC INDUSTRIAL CO., LTD., proactively informs the market about the recent update to the safety regulations of several of its most widely used component families.

 

THINKING has obtained UL + cUL certifications. Since the CSA and cUL certification standards are identical and recognized with the same benefits for use in the Canadian region, the manufacturer has decided to cancel three CSA certificates and replace them entirely with the cUL certificate.
