AI Customer ServiceA: In a three-digit capacitor code, the first two digits represent the significant figures, and the third digit represents the multiplier. To determine the capacitance, combine the first two digits and multiply them by 10 raised to the power of the third digit. For example, a code of “104” translates to 10 x 10^4 pF = 10,000 pF or 10 nF.
A: Capacitor code values are used to represent the capacitance value of a capacitor component. Capacitors are electronic components that store and release electrical energy. The code values help in identifying the capacitance value of a capacitor without having to write the full value in Farads. Q: How are capacitor code values expressed?
There are many different types of capacitors, but typically most do not have color coding like resistors. Some capacitors will have their capacitance and voltage ratings printed directly on the component, but some may have a three or four digit code. Here's a clear explanation of what these codes mean and how to read them.
The capacitance in pF is equal to all digits linked together with a decimal point on the location of the R in this case. The letter at the end indicates the tolerance. These values can be found in the table below. We have a capacitor with the code 156J. The capacitance is 15·10 6 pF = 15μF. The tolerance for J is 5%.
• Ceramic Capacitor Markings Ceramic capacitors, known for their small size, use concise markings with digits and letters to indicate capacitance values. These codes convey information in minimal space, often including a base capacitance value followed by a letter for tolerance or temperature coefficient.
The table below allows you to cross-reference those codes against actual (nominal) capacitance values. Elecrolytic capacitors on the other hand, typically come in cylindrical packages, with values printed directly, ie 470uF rather than an obscure ID code.
