Ordering Code Information
The ordering code follows a specific structure to define the capacitor's characteristics:
K [Capacitance (pF)] [Tolerance] [Size Code] [T.C. Code] [Rated Voltage] [Lead Diameter] [Packaging/Lead Length] [Lead Style] [Lead Spacing]
Example breakdown:
- K: Radial leaded MLCC
- Capacitance (pF): Two significant digits followed by a multiplier (e.g., 104 = 10 x 10^4 pF = 100 nF)
- Tolerance: J = 5 %, K = 10 %, M = 20 %, Z = +80 %/-20 %
- Size Code: Refers to the physical dimensions (e.g., 10, 15, 20)
- T.C. Code: Temperature characteristic (e.g., C0G, X7R)
- Rated Voltage: F = 50 VDC, H = 100 VDC, K = 200 VDC, L = 500 VDC
- Lead Diameter: 5 = 0.50 mm 0.05 mm
- Packaging/Lead Length: 3 = Bulk (standard lead length 30 mm 5 mm), T = Tape and reel, U = Ammo
- Lead Style: H = Flat crimp, K = Outside crimp, L = Straight
- Lead Spacing: 2 = 2.5 mm, 5 = 5.0 mm
Marking
Marking indicates capacitance value and tolerance in accordance with EIA 198 and voltage marks.
- Capacitance Value < 100 pF: Vishay logo or BC logo, two significant digits, one digit for the multiplier, and tolerance code.
- Capacitance Value 100 pF: Vishay logo or BC logo, three significant digits, and tolerance code.
Tolerance Codes:
J = 5 %
K = 10 %
M = 20 %
Z = +80 %/-20 %
Test Voltage
- 50 VDC and 100 VDC: 250 % of rated voltage
- 200 VDC: 150 % of rated voltage + 100 VDC
- 500 VDC: 130 % of rated voltage + 100 VDC
Insulation Resistance at 500 VDC
- 50 VDC and 100 VDC: 100 G or 1000 F whichever is less (at rated voltage within 2 min of charging)
- 200 VDC and 500 VDC: 10 G or 100 F whichever is less (at rated voltage within 2 min of charging)
