Marking
Marking indicates capacitance value and tolerance in accordance with EIA 198 and voltage marks. The marking scheme varies slightly based on capacitance value and size.
For Capacitance Value < 100 pF:
- SIZE 10 AND 15: Vishay logo or BC logo, t (Tolerance code), XX (Capacitance code)
For Capacitance Value 100 pF:
- SIZE 10 AND 15: Vishay logo or BC logo, XXX (Capacitance code), t (Tolerance code)
- SIZE 20: Vishay logo or BC logo, XXX (Capacitance code), t (Tolerance code)
