Capacitor numbering rules

The capacitors which are small in size does not provide space required for clear markings and only few figures can be accommodated in the given space in order to mark it and provide a code for their various parameters. Thus, abbreviated markings are used in such cases wherein three characters are used to mark the.

Capacitor Characteristics

Capacitor Characteristics – Nominal Capacitance, (C) The nominal value of the Capacitance, C of a capacitor is the most important of all capacitor characteristics. This value measured in pico-Farads (pF), nano-Farads (nF) or micro-Farads (μF) and is marked onto the body of the capacitor as numbers, letters or coloured bands.

6 FAQs about [Capacitor numbering rules]

How many numbers does a capacitor have?

Commonly the capacitor will have one or two numbers printed on it. Here are explanations of the most common cases: The capacitance is this number of picoFarads (pF). If we call the digits ABC, the capacitance is given by the formula (AB * 10C) pF. For example, a capacitor that reads 224 is 22 * 104 pF = 220,000 pF = 220 nF = 0.22 uF.

What is a capacitor marking code?

This capacitor marking code uses three characters. It bears many similarities to the numeric code system adopted for some surface mount resistors. The first two figures refer to the significant figures of the capacitor value, and the third one acts as a multiplier.

What is the three-digit code for a capacitor?

The three-digit code for a capacitor is 681J. The first two digits 68 represent the starting capacitance value of the capacitor.

How to identify a capacitor?

Thus, for such concise markings many different types of schemes or solutions are adopted. The value of the capacitor is indicated in “Picofarads”. Some of the marking figures which can be observed are 10n which denotes that the capacitor is of 10nF. In a similar way, 0.51nF is indicated by the marking n51.

What are capacitor code values?

A: Capacitor code values are used to represent the capacitance value of a capacitor component. Capacitors are electronic components that store and release electrical energy. The code values help in identifying the capacitance value of a capacitor without having to write the full value in Farads. Q: How are capacitor code values expressed?

What does 47 and 5 mean on a capacitor?

For the example of the capacitor code shown in the diagram, the two figures 47 indicate the significant figures and the 5 indicates the multiplier of 5, i.e. 100 000, i.e. 4.7µF. In some cases the only marking shown on the capacitor may be a bar across one end indicating the polarity.
