CAPACITORS
There are two types of capacitors available and they can be
identified
from each
other by reading
therr
Part Numbers.
*
Ceramic type capacitor;
A symbol
“c”
or “K” is given at the 3rd digit of its Part Number like “VCC (or
K) J,”
*
Semiconductor type capacitor.
A symbol “T” is given at the 3rd digit of its Part Number like “VCT......J.”
The capacrtance error of each capacitor is indicated by the symbol given at the
13th digit of the Part Number as
follows:“J” (?!I%),
“K”
(?lO%),
“M”
(120%)
“N” (?130%),
“c” (kO.25 pF),
“D”
(kO.5 pF),
“z”
(+80-20%).
(Tubular type ceramic capacitor is identified by the symbol
TV(TQ/CY)
of the
part NO.
VCOOTV(TQ/CY)OOOOOOO;
this
TV(TQ/CY)
does not mean the lead
wrre.)
(Tubular type ceramic capacitor is identified by the symbol
MF(MN)
of the part
NO.
VCOOMF(MN)OOOOOOO;
this
MF(MN)
does not mean the
iead
wire.)
Unless otherwise specified, electrolytic capacrtors are
t20%
type.
