Abstract
A capacitor with improved lead frame attachment is described wherein the improved lead frame attachment mitigates defects. The capacitor comprises parallel conductive internal electrodes of alternating polarity with a dielectric between the conductive internal electrodes. A first copper undercoat is in electrical contact with the conductive internal electrodes of a first polarity and a second copper undercoat is in electrical contact with conductive internal electrodes of a second polarity. A first lead is in electrical contact with the first copper undercoat with a first solder between the first lead and the first copper undercoat. A second lead is in electrical contact with the second copper undercoat with a second solder between the second lead and the second copper undercoat.
