✔ RoHS Compliant  /  ✔ SMD  /  ✔ Murata Quality  /  ✔ Long-Term Supply

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• Power Supply Decoupling: The 50V rating and 0.1µF value suit industrial DC/DC converters, while C0G/NP0 ensures minimal capacitance shift under bias and temperature.
• High-Frequency Signal Coupling: Low ESR and stable C0G/NP0 dielectric make it ideal for RF modules or Ethernet PHY circuits where signal integrity is critical.
• Timing & Filter Networks: The tight ±5% tolerance allows precise RC time constants in oscillator circuits or active filters without additional trimming.

Key Features & Advantages

• ±5% Tolerance: Offers tight control for sensitive designs, reducing design margin requirements.
• C0G/NP0 Dielectric: Exhibits near-zero temperature coefficient and high insulation resistance, ensuring long-term reliability.
• 1206 Package: Provides a good balance of power handling and solder joint strength, compatible with automated pick-and-place.
