The 3 digit code 104 written over ceramic capacitor indicates its value.
103 ceramic disc capacitor value.
Hence the value of the capacitor above is 47000 pf 5.
Click here for resistor colour code and smd resistor code ceramic disc capacitors have two to three digits code printed on them.
This is a simple online calculator for color band resistor marking inductor color band marking ceramic or tantalum capacitor 3 digit marking and smd resistor 3 digit 4 digit 10 5 2 and eia 96 e96 1 tolerance code marking.
This letter represents the tolerance of the capacitor meaning how close the actual value of the capacitor can be expected to be to the indicated value of the capacitor.
Method of finding the value meaning of codes of capacitor.
0 1nf 22nf 4 5 out of 5 stars 18 11 99 11.
The first two digits 10 of this code are first two digits of capacitor value and third digit 4 gives the number of zeroes to be added so as to get capacitor value in pico.
Xlx 300pcs 15values high voltage ceramic disc capacitor assortment kit 1kv 2kv and 3kv capacitor range.
The 3 digit capacitor code 103 stands for 10 nf in words.
Ceramic capacitors encoding consists 1 3 digits.
The 3 digit capacitor code 102 stands for 1 nf in words.
For electrolytic capacitors simply capacitance values are written on them.
If the capacitor code consist only 1 or 2 digits it is simply their capacitance.
Then the 4 1 st digit the 7 2 nd digit the 3 is the multiplier in pico farads pf and the letter j is the tolerance and this translates to.
Ceramic capacitors which are usually tiny pancakes with two pins typically list the tolerance value as one letter immediately after the three digit capacitance value.
Like resistors the tolerance of the capacitor indicates how close the printed value meets reality.
47pf 1 000 3 zero s 47 000 pf 47nf or 0 047uf the j indicates a tolerance of 5.
The capacitor on the left is of a ceramic disc type capacitor that has the code 473j printed onto its body.
Encoding for ceramic capacitors.
The first two numbers describe the value of the capacitor and the third number is the number of zeros in the multiplier.
Then by just using numbers and letters as codes.
With smaller disc type capacitors tolerance is most often indicated by a single letter code which is sometimes placed by itself on the body of the capacitor or after the three digit mark such as.
By using this capacitor value calculator we can calculate the value of that capacitor or vice versa.
