The spec for r capacitors such as x5r and x7r is 15.
Ceramic capacitor temperature range.
The theoretical range is from 45 c to 200 c.

Class 1 and class 2.
Ceramic capacitor dielectrics are defined by a three character eia code that specifies the material s capacitance stability over a specified temperature range.
Class 1 ceramic capacitors.
The third character indicates the maximum amount of capacitance change over the part s temperature range.
There are two classes of ceramic capacitors available today.
Based on the working temperature range temperature drift tolerance different ceramic capacitor classes are defined.
The two most common types are multi layer ceramic capacitors and ceramic disc capacitors.
Characteristics precision and tolerances.
Only available as leaded components.
The second character indicates the maximum temperature.
For instance ceramic capacitors made using x5r dielectric materials have an operating temperature range of 55 c to 85 c with an allowable variation in capacitance of 15 over.
Some capacitors are non linear.
Class 3 ceramic capacitors offer higher volumetric efficiency than the class 2 ceramic capacitors but their temperature stability is not nearly so good.
A typical performance for the change of capacitance with temperature is 22 to 56 over a range of 10 c to 55 c.
5 as in x5r corresponds to 85 c and 7 as in x7r corresponds to 125 c.
The temperature coefficient of a capacitor is generally expressed linearly as parts per million per degree centigrade ppm o c or as a percent change over a particular range of temperatures.
The rated ac load for an ac capacitor is the maximum sinusoidal effective ac current rms which may be applied continuously to a capacitor within the specified temperature range.
The temperature coefficient of a capacitor is the maximum change in its capacitance over a specified temperature range.
