0805Y0500103MXTE01

Overview

The Knowles Syfer 0805Y0500103MXTE01 is a surface-mount multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) from the XT series. It features a 0805 (2012 metric) case size with X7R dielectric material, providing a capacitance of 10 nF and a DC voltage rating of 50 VDC. The component offers a tolerance of ±20% and utilizes flexible soft terminations to enhance board flex sensitivity. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Flexible soft termination design for improved reliability on flex-sensitive boards
• X7R dielectric material for stable performance across wide temperature ranges
• Standard SMD/SMT mounting configuration in compact 0805 footprint

Applications

• General-purpose decoupling and bypassing in electronic circuits
• Board-flex sensitive applications requiring durable terminations
• High-reliability industrial equipment operating in extreme temperatures

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'E01' against official documentation to confirm if it denotes a special qualification or packaging variant distinct from standard reels. Ensure compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment regarding the flexible terminal characteristics. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet for any updates on RoHS compliance status or recommended soldering profiles.

Selection Notes

Select this component when board flex durability is critical due to its flexible termination technology. The X7R dielectric provides a balance of capacitance density and temperature stability suitable for general applications. Consider the 0805 footprint constraints and the 50V rating margin relative to the circuit's maximum operating voltage to ensure long-term reliability under thermal stress.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Knowles Syfer XT series of general-type MLCCs. The series is designed for high-reliability applications, often featuring specialized termination technologies like FlexiCap to address mechanical stress issues common in modern miniaturized electronics. The 0805Y prefix indicates the standard commercial grade within this broader portfolio.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 0805 10nF 50V X7R capacitors with flexible terminations, such as those from the same XT series with different tolerance codes (e.g., KXT for 10%). Verify that alternative parts maintain the same physical dimensions and termination flexibility to prevent assembly failures.
