Additional Details

The TC212B336K016Y's capacitance of 33µF indicates its ability to store electrical charge. The 16V voltage rating specifies the maximum DC voltage that can be safely applied across the capacitor. The tolerance of ±10% indicates the allowable variation in the actual capacitance value from the nominal value. The X5R temperature coefficient means that the capacitance will vary by no more than ±15% over the operating temperature range of -55°C to +85°C. This makes it suitable for general-purpose applications where temperature stability is important. The physical size code (e.g., 0805) determines the capacitor's dimensions and footprint on the circuit board. Surface mount MLCCs are designed for automated assembly processes, contributing to efficient manufacturing.
