Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• Wireless & RF Modules: The C0G/NP0 dielectric provides an ultra-stable 8pF capacitance across a wide temperature range (-55°C to +125°C), which is critical for maintaining resonant frequency in LC tank circuits and filters without drift.
• Precision Timing & Oscillator Circuits: With a tight ±0.05pF tolerance, this 50V capacitor ensures consistent RC time constants and oscillation frequencies, reducing the need for calibration in sensitive timing applications.
• High-Reliability Automotive & Industrial Sensors: As a Murata component in a standard 0402 package, it offers robust performance under voltage and temperature stress, providing high insulation resistance and minimal piezoelectric noise for sensor signal integrity.

Key Features & Advantages

• Class 1 C0G/NP0 Dielectric: Offers one of the flattest temperature coefficients (±30 ppm/°C), ensuring predictable performance in harsh thermal environments.
• ±0.05pF Tight Tolerance: Enables high-accuracy filtering and matching, which is essential for RF impedance matching and precision analog circuits.
• 50V Rated Voltage: Provides a significant safety margin over typical 3.3V or 5V logic lines, enhancing long-term reliability and reducing the risk of dielectric breakdown.
