KEMET C0402C560J5GACTU 56pF 50V 0402 SMD Capacitors 80 PCS

Genuine KEMET C0402C560J5GACTU multilayer ceramic surface-mount capacitors, supplied as one lot containing 80 pieces from original DigiKey distributor-labeled stock.

These miniature 0402 MLCC capacitors feature a nominal capacitance of 56pF, a 50V DC voltage rating, ±5% tolerance, and C0G/NP0 ceramic dielectric.

Part of KEMET's SMD C0G capacitor family, these components offer excellent capacitance stability, low dielectric losses, and reliable performance in circuits requiring predictable electrical characteristics.

Unlike high-dielectric-constant ceramic capacitors, C0G/NP0 capacitors exhibit minimal capacitance variation with temperature, making them useful for frequency-sensitive and precision electronic applications.

Typical applications include RF filtering, oscillator circuits, signal coupling, resonant networks, impedance-matching circuits, electronic instrumentation, communications equipment, radio repair, and component-level PCB restoration.

Technical specifications include a 0402 (1005 Metric) surface-mount package measuring approximately 1.0 × 0.5 mm, a rated operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, and low equivalent series inductance.

The original DigiKey distributor label is dated August 29, 2018, identifies Mexico as the country of origin, and confirms RoHS compliance.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND:

KEMET Corporation was founded in 1919 and developed into a major manufacturer of capacitors and passive electronic components. The company's history includes the development and production of capacitor technologies used in industrial, consumer, communications, aerospace, and electronic instrumentation applications.

Over the decades, ceramic capacitors became essential building blocks of electronic circuits because of their compact size, reliability, and ability to provide capacitance without requiring polarized construction.

Multilayer ceramic capacitor technology advanced by stacking alternating layers of ceramic dielectric and internal electrodes, allowing manufacturers to produce increasingly miniature components suitable for densely populated circuit boards.

C0G/NP0 dielectric technology became particularly important in electronic designs requiring stable capacitance over changing operating temperatures.

Unlike X7R, X5R, and Y5V ceramic dielectrics, C0G/NP0 capacitors maintain comparatively stable capacitance with temperature and applied DC bias. Their low-loss characteristics make them especially valuable in RF circuits, oscillators, filters, and precision signal networks.

The KEMET C0402C560J5GACTU provides 56pF nominal capacitance with ±5% tolerance and a 50V rating in the miniature 0402 surface-mount package.

Its C0G/NP0 dielectric makes it suitable for properly designed frequency-sensitive circuits where capacitance stability is important.

The original DigiKey packaging is dated August 29, 2018, documenting the distributor stock history of these components.

The packaging identifies Mexico as the country of origin.
