KEMET Corporation is one of the world's largest manufacturers of tantalum capacitors. Although the company was officially established in 1987, its history in the components industry can be traced back to 1919. A distinctive feature of KEMET's products is that even its civilian-grade products must pass strict U.S. military-standard inspections, ensuring their excellent performance. KEMET is a top supplier to HP. In the field of MLCC (multilayer ceramic capacitors), compared to Japan's Murata, KEMET focuses more on high-end MLCC applications in military, medical, automotive, and industrial sectors. In June, 2020, KEMET was acquired by YAGEO Corporation (TAIEX: 2327).
