C1608C0G2E182J080AE C1608C0G2E182J080AE Ceramic Capacitor (MLCC)

C1608C0G2E182J080AE is a high-quality multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by TDK, a global leader in electronic components. This passive component is designed for general commercial applications, providing stable capacitance in a compact surface-mount package. Its primary function is to store and release electrical energy, filter noise, and stabilize voltage in various electronic circuits. TDK’s commitment to precision engineering ensures that this capacitor delivers reliable performance across a wide range of operating conditions, making it an ideal choice for demanding electronic designs.

Key Specifications

The C1608C0G2E182J080AE boasts several critical specifications that define its performance and suitability for specific applications. Its Capacitance of 1.8nF (nanofarads) indicates its ability to store charge; this value is suitable for filtering high frequencies or coupling signals in many digital and analog circuits. The Tolerance of ±5% signifies the permissible deviation from the nominal capacitance value, ensuring consistent circuit performance. A tight tolerance like this is crucial for precision timing circuits and critical filtering applications. The Rated Voltage [DC] of 250V specifies the maximum DC voltage that can be continuously applied across the capacitor without breakdown, making it suitable for circuits with moderate to high voltage requirements. The L x W Size of 1.6mm x 0.8mm, corresponding to the EIA 0603 standard, highlights its compact footprint, essential for miniaturized electronic devices where board space is at a premium. The T(Max.) / mm of 0.95mm indicates the maximum thickness of the component, which is important for mechanical design and automated assembly processes. The Temp. Chara. of C0G is a highly stable dielectric material, meaning its capacitance changes minimally with temperature variations. This is further quantified by the Cap.Change or Temp.Coef. of 0±30ppm/°C, indicating an extremely low temperature coefficient, which is vital for applications requiring high stability over a broad Operating Temp. Range of -55 to 125°C. This wide temperature range ensures reliable operation in harsh environmental conditions.
