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

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• High-Frequency Filtering: The C0G/NP0 dielectric exhibits minimal capacitance change with frequency and temperature, making it ideal for RF decoupling and noise suppression in communication modules.
• Precision Timing Circuits: A ±5% tolerance and stable capacitance over voltage ensure consistent timing in oscillators and PLL filters used in industrial controls.
• Power Supply Decoupling: 50V rating provides headroom for DC/DC converter input/output bypass in automotive and IoT devices, while the 1206 package offers reliable solder joints.

Key Features & Advantages

• C0G/NP0 Dielectric: Ultra‑stable capacitance from -55°C to +125°C, with negligible aging and low loss (DF < 0.1%).
• Compact 1206 Package: Enables high‑density PCB layouts while maintaining good thermal and mechanical performance.
• Murata Quality Assurance: Tight process control delivers excellent insulation resistance and low failure rates for long‑term reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions
