Additional Details
The C1206X103K201TX has a capacitance value of 10nF (103 = 10 x 10^3 pF = 10000 pF = 10 nF). The 'K' in the part number indicates a capacitance tolerance of ±10%. The 201 likely indicates a voltage rating of 200V, and TX likely refers to the specific temperature characteristics and packaging. X7R dielectric material ensures that the capacitance changes by no more than ±15% over the operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. It's crucial to consult the datasheet to confirm the precise voltage rating, temperature coefficient, and other specifications. This capacitor is RoHS compliant, meaning it does not contain hazardous substances such as lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), or polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE).
