Abstract

A hermetically sealed and automatically insertable decoupling capacitor for use in conjunction with integrated circuit DIP inserter devices having a multi-layer ceramic capacitor chip provided with conductive electrodes on the top and bottom surfaces thereof sandwiched between suitable conductive strips and insulating layers and retained within an opening formed in an insulating strip by solder or conductive adhesive. The multi-layer ceramic capacitor further includes conductive end terminations having insulative caps thereon to prevent shorting.
