CGA4C2C0G1H152J060AA CGA4C2C0G1H152J060AA Ceramic Capacitor (MLCC)

CGA4C2C0G1H152J060AA is a high-performance, automotive-grade multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by TDK, a global leader in electronic components. This passive component is specifically designed for demanding applications within the automotive industry, where reliability and stability are paramount. As an MLCC, it functions by storing and releasing electrical energy, playing a crucial role in filtering, bypassing, coupling, and timing circuits. Its robust construction and adherence to stringent automotive standards ensure stable performance across a wide range of operating conditions, making it an ideal choice for critical automotive electronic systems.

Key Specifications

The CGA4C2C0G1H152J060AA boasts several key specifications that underscore its suitability for high-reliability applications. Its Automotive Grade designation, confirmed by its AEC-Q200 qualification, signifies that it has undergone rigorous testing to meet the demanding reliability requirements for automotive electronics. The Capacitance of 1.5nF (nanofarads) indicates its energy storage capacity, a fundamental parameter for filtering and timing applications. A tight Tolerance of ±5% ensures that the actual capacitance value is very close to the nominal value, which is critical for precision circuits. The Rated Voltage [DC] of 50V specifies the maximum continuous DC voltage that can be applied across the capacitor without breakdown, providing a significant margin for typical automotive 12V or 24V systems. The L x W Size of 2.0mm x 1.25mm [EIA 0805] defines its physical dimensions, corresponding to a standard surface-mount package size that facilitates automated assembly processes. The T(Max.) / mm of 0.75 refers to the maximum thickness of the component, important for space-constrained designs. The Temp. Chara. of C0G, also known as NP0, is a highly stable dielectric material characterized by a very low Cap.Change or Temp.Coef. of 0±30ppm/°C. This means its capacitance changes minimally with temperature variations, ensuring consistent performance over its wide Operating Temp. Range of -55 to 125°C. This broad temperature range is essential for components exposed to the harsh thermal environments found in automotive applications.
