Ceramic Cap 105

The iec code is a numerical code that works in a similar way to the resistor colour code.

Ceramic cap 105.

When the first two numbers are multiplied with the multiplier the. A ceramic capacitor is a fixed value capacitor where the ceramic material acts as the dielectric. It is constructed of two or more alternating layers of ceramic and a metal layer acting as the electrodes. 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.

Quite often there is a single letter indicating tolerance. For example if a ceramic capacitor has a code 5 and other has 47 their respective capacitance values are 5 pf and 47 pf. The composition of the ceramic material defines the electrical behavior and therefore applications. However there are a number of capacitors manufacturers who use the iec code.

If the capacitor code consist only 1 or 2 digits it is simply their capacitance value in picofarads pf. Most capacitors will have their value printed on them. Encoding for ceramic capacitors. The 3 digit capacitor code 105 stands for 1 μf in words.

6 105 c 221 f l 15. Ceramic capacitors encoding consists 1 3 digits. There are several tolerance marking systems used. 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.

The first two numbers describe the value of the capacitor and the third number is the number of zeros in the multiplier. In addition to the capacitance value and possibly the working voltage or breakdown voltage the capacitor may be marked by its tolerance. Two figures followed by a multiplier. This is a simple online calculator for color band resistor marking inductor color band marking ceramic or tantalum capacitor 3 digit marking and smd resistor 3 digit 4 digit 10 5 2 and eia 96 e96 1 tolerance code marking.

Two of the most common are shown here. The first is used with small ceramic capacitors and appears as a single letter. Method of finding the value meaning of codes of capacitor.
