$7.95

90-piece lot of NOS TDK C1608C0G1E562J080AA multilayer ceramic chip capacitors from original Mouser-labeled component stock. Each capacitor provides 5600 pF / 5.6 nF capacitance, 25 VDC rating, ±5% tolerance, C0G/NP0 temperature characteristics, and an EIA 0603 / 1608 metric surface-mount package.

The C1608C0G1E562J080AA is a Class 1 C0G/NP0 ceramic capacitor designed for applications where capacitance stability, low electrical loss, and predictable temperature performance are important. Its C0G characteristic is specified at approximately 0 ±30 ppm/°C, with an operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

C0G/NP0 capacitors are particularly useful in RF, communications, oscillator, filter, resonant, timing, impedance-matching, instrumentation, and precision analog circuitry because they exhibit substantially less capacitance variation with temperature and applied voltage than many higher-capacitance ceramic dielectric families.

The exact TDK C1608C0G1E562J080AA is OBSOLETE and DISCONTINUED. TDK ended production of this specific part and recommends newer related components as alternatives, but interchangeability is not automatically guaranteed. This makes original NOS stock useful for repair, legacy equipment support, restoration, and applications where maintaining the original specified component is desirable.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND:

TDK has been a major global manufacturer of ceramic capacitors and passive electronic components for decades, with its multilayer ceramic capacitor families appearing throughout radio, communications, industrial, computing, instrumentation, test equipment, and consumer electronics.

As electronics moved toward increasingly compact surface-mount construction, the 0603 package became one of the industry's most widely used MLCC formats. It provided designers with a compact component while remaining large enough for broad automated production and many professional repair applications.

C0G, historically also called NP0, represents one of the most stable ceramic dielectric classes. Unlike higher-dielectric-constant capacitor types optimized primarily for maximum capacitance in minimum space, C0G components are favored where frequency stability, low loss, low drift, and predictable electrical behavior are important.

The 5.6 nF value can be useful in RF filtering, resonant networks, oscillators, coupling networks, timing circuits, signal conditioning, precision filters, communications electronics, instrumentation, test equipment, and other circuits requiring a stable small-value capacitor.

Because this exact TDK part has reached end of production, remaining NOS inventory can be particularly useful to technicians maintaining legacy boards or equipment originally designed around this specific component.
