The first is used with small ceramic capacitors and appears as a single letter.
Ceramic cap 105.
However there are a number of capacitors manufacturers who use the iec code.
Most capacitors will have their value printed on them.
It is constructed of two or more alternating layers of ceramic and a metal layer acting as the electrodes.
The composition of the ceramic material defines the electrical behavior and therefore applications.
Two of the most common are shown here.
If the capacitor code consist only 1 or 2 digits it is simply their capacitance value in picofarads pf.
Method of finding the value meaning of codes of capacitor.
There are several tolerance marking systems used.
In addition to the capacitance value and possibly the working voltage or breakdown voltage the capacitor may be marked by its tolerance.
Ceramic capacitors encoding consists 1 3 digits.
The first two numbers describe the value of the capacitor and the third number is the number of zeros in the multiplier.
When the first two numbers are multiplied with the multiplier the.
About 98 of these are capacitors 0 are other electronic components.
Common ceramic capacitor tags capacitor 108 0 1 pf capacitor 158 0 15 pf capacitor 228 0 22 pf capacitor 338 0 33 pf capacitor 478 0 47 pf.
The 3 digit capacitor code 105 stands for 1 μf in words.
6 105 c 221 f l 15.
A ceramic capacitor is a fixed value capacitor where the ceramic material acts as the dielectric.
Quite often there is a single letter indicating tolerance.
Two figures followed by a multiplier.
The iec code is a numerical code that works in a similar way to the resistor colour code.
For example if a ceramic capacitor has a code 5 and other has 47 their respective capacitance values are 5 pf and 47 pf.
Capacitor type ceramic has a high range of capacitance value starting from 10pf to 3 3uf has a high range of voltage value starting from 16v to 450v can withstand a maximum of 105 c temperature.
