✔ RoHS Compliant  /  ✔ 0805  /  ✔ Murata Quality  /  ✔ Long-Term Supply

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• DC-DC Converter Output Filtering: The 250V rating ensures stable operation under high-voltage transients, while the 10000pF capacitance provides effective high-frequency noise suppression.
• LED Lighting Driver Circuits: X7R dielectric maintains capacitance stability across a wide temperature range, critical for consistent current regulation in harsh environments.
• Industrial Sensor Interfaces: The compact 0805 footprint fits tight PCB layouts, and the 10% tolerance guarantees predictable performance in precision analog stages.

Key Features & Advantages

• High Voltage Margin: 250V rating exceeds typical bus voltages, reducing derating concerns and improving long-term reliability in 24V–48V systems.
• Temperature-Stable Dielectric: X7R ceramic delivers ±15% capacitance change from -55°C to +125°C, enabling consistent performance in thermal cycling applications.
• Standardized 0805 Package: Compatible with mainstream pick-and-place machines, simplifying assembly and enabling seamless BOM consolidation.

Frequently Asked Questions
