Ceramic Capacitor Code 104

For example 204 20 10 4 200000 pf.

Ceramic capacitor code 104.

Similarly if the capacitor code is 152 the 3 rd digit is 2 so multiplier factor is 100. Smd ceramic capacitor codes. 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. Similarly n51 indicates a 0 51nf or 510 pf capacitor etc.

The first is used with small ceramic capacitors and appears as a single letter. Then the 4 1 st digit the 7 2 nd digit the 3 is the multiplier in pico farads pf and the letter j is the tolerance and this translates to. 15 100 1500 pf. The capacitance value will be calculated as follows.

The capacitor on the left is of a ceramic disc type capacitor that has the code 473j printed onto its body. Here is another example code 104 is 10 followed by four zeros hence 10 0000 pf. 502 52 10 2 5200 pf.

Surface mount capacitors are often very small and do not have the space for markings. The 3 digit capacitor code 104 stands for 100 nf in words. 330 33 10 0 33 pf 10 0 1 here is a table of mostly used codes of ceramic capacitor and their unit conversion in micro nano and picofarad. Now the multiplier is 10 2.

With smaller disc type capacitors tolerance is most often indicated by a single letter code which is sometimes placed by itself on the body of the capacitor or after the three digit mark such as. 47pf 1 000 3 zero s 47 000 pf 47nf or 0 047uf the j indicates a tolerance of 5. One hundred nanofarads capacitance. Then by just using numbers and letters as codes.

If a capacitor has 682 code first check the last no here last no is 2. Multiplier table ceramic number multiply by additional of zeros 0 none 0 1 10 1. A variety of schemes may be used. Sometimes figures such as 10n will be seen and this indicates a 10nf capacitor.

Often the value may be given in picofarads. Engineers usually do not require calculators because the code is so simple. If you are new to capacitor codes then the best way to start is with a chart because that way you can see the arrangement of the code. 472 47 10 2 4700 pf.
