✔ RoHS Compliant  /  ✔ 0603  /  ✔ Murata Quality  /  ✔ Long-Term Supply

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• RF Tuning Circuits: The 12pF ±1% tolerance ensures precise frequency control in filters and oscillators, while C0G/NP0 provides near-zero capacitance change with temperature.
• High-Voltage Decoupling: With 100V rating, this MLCC safely decouples power rails in industrial and automotive modules, maintaining stability under transient surges.
• Sensor Interface Conditioning: The low loss and tight tolerance of C0G make this capacitor ideal for impedance matching in precision sensor signal paths.

Key Features & Advantages

• Excellent Temperature Stability: C0G/NP0 dielectric ensures capacitance varies less than ±30ppm/°C, critical for timing and resonant applications.
• High Voltage Rating: 100V DC rating in a compact 0603 package enables use in power management and buffer circuits without derating.
• ±1% Tight Tolerance: Guarantees consistent performance in measurement and calibration equipment, reducing design margins.
