Low inductance Capacitors take a number of forms. This pages deals with changing the aspect ratio of the chip, or the placement of the component leads. Low inductance Chip Capacitors place their leads on the short end of the body, while normal chip capacitors have their leads on the long end of the device.

In general, low inductance capacitors take-up about the same area as non low inductance capacitors, but move the leads, or CCA connection points. The new body styles comes with different names or foot-prints. A 1206 chip capacitor becomes a 0612 style capacitor as the leads move from length-wise to width-wise. An 0805 capacitor is called an 0508 in the low inductance form factor. The 0603 Chip Cap is now called an 0306 in the low inductance form factor. The leads move from left-to-right to top-to-bottom.
