✔ RoHS Compliant  /  ✔ 0402  /  ✔ Murata Quality  /  ✔ Long-Term Supply

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• RF Matching Networks: The 8.2pF value and ±0.25pF tolerance ensure accurate impedance matching at frequencies up to several GHz, while C0G provides minimal drift over temperature.
• Timing & Resonant Circuits: With a stable NP0 dielectric and 50V rating, this capacitor is ideal for oscillator and filter designs where capacitance variation must stay below 0.5% over the operating range.
• High-Voltage DC-DC Snubbers: Despite its small 0402 size, the 50V capability allows it to handle voltage spikes in compact power modules without derating.

Key Features & Advantages

• Ultra-Stable C0G/NP0 Dielectric: Capacitance change is virtually independent of voltage and temperature (±30ppm/°C), making it suitable for critical analog circuits.
• Precision ±0.25pF Tolerance: Ensures repeatable circuit performance in high-frequency filters and oscillators where even 0.1pF deviation can detune the design.
• High Voltage Rating in 0402 Case: The 50V rating in a compact footprint saves board space while maintaining reliability in moderate-voltage rails.
