KEMET C0603C103J5RACTU 0.01uF 50V 0603 SMD Capacitors 160 PCS
Full Description & History
Genuine KEMET C0603C103J5RACTU multilayer ceramic surface-mount capacitors, supplied as one lot containing 160 pieces from original Mouser Electronics distributor-labeled stock.
These miniature 0603 MLCC capacitors feature a nominal capacitance of 0.01uF (10nF or 10,000pF), a 50V DC voltage rating, and ±5% capacitance tolerance.
Manufactured using X7R ceramic dielectric technology, these components offer general-purpose capacitance characteristics suitable for electronic filtering, bypassing, and decoupling applications.
The X7R dielectric provides a specified temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, with capacitance variation of ±15% across that temperature range. Actual capacitance can also vary with applied DC voltage.
Typical applications include power-supply filtering, decoupling networks, noise suppression, signal conditioning, industrial control boards, communications electronics, instrumentation, consumer electronics, and component-level PCB repair.
The standard 0603 (1608 Metric) package measures approximately 1.6 × 0.8 mm and is suitable for compact surface-mount printed circuit boards.
The original Mouser distributor label identifies Mexico as the country of origin, confirms RoHS compliance, and carries date code 1823.
Lot Size: 160 Pieces
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND:
KEMET Corporation was founded in 1919 and became a major international manufacturer of electronic capacitors and passive components. Its early history was associated with the development of materials and components used in electrical and electronic equipment.
Over subsequent decades, KEMET expanded its manufacturing capabilities into ceramic capacitors, tantalum capacitors, film capacitors, and other passive electronic technologies.
Multilayer ceramic capacitor technology became increasingly important as electronic circuits required smaller components with higher capacitance density.
MLCC construction uses alternating layers of ceramic dielectric material and internal electrodes, allowing useful capacitance values to be produced within extremely compact packages.
X7R dielectric technology became widely used in general-purpose electronic circuits because it offers a practical balance between capacitance density, operating temperature range, and cost.
As printed circuit boards became smaller and more densely populated, miniature 0603 ceramic capacitors became common in power-supply decoupling, signal filtering, and electronic control applications.
The C0603C103J5RACTU belongs to KEMET's general-purpose X7R ceramic capacitor family and provides 0.01uF capacitance with ±5% tolerance and a 50V rating in the miniature 0603 package.
The original Mouser distributor packaging carries date code 1823, conventionally corresponding to the twenty-third production week of 2018.
The packaging identifies Mexico as the country of origin for this particular stock.
