1206J1000820MCTE01

Overview

The Knowles Syfer 1206J1000820MCTE01 is a three-terminal surface-mount EMI filter capacitor housed in a 1206 (3216 metric) package. It features a C0G/NP0 dielectric with an 82 pF capacitance and ±20% tolerance. Rated for 100 VDC, it utilizes nickel barrier and 100% tin terminations. The component operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Three-terminal architecture provides enhanced electromagnetic interference suppression compared to standard two-terminal designs.
• C0G/NP0 dielectric ensures stable capacitance performance across varying temperatures and voltages.
• Nickel barrier and 100% tin termination system offers reliable solderability and corrosion resistance.

Applications

• High-frequency signal line filtering in communication equipment
• Power supply input/output noise suppression in industrial electronics
• EMI mitigation in automotive electronic control units

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix configuration against official datasheets to ensure compatibility with required termination materials and voltage ratings. Confirm that the three-terminal footprint matches the target PCB layout dimensions. Check for RoHS compliance status relevant to the manufacturing region. Ensure storage conditions adhere to moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to reflow soldering.

Selection Notes

Select this component when superior high-frequency attenuation is required over standard MLCCs. The three-terminal design effectively grounds noise currents, reducing radiated emissions. Verify that the 100V rating meets the circuit's peak voltage demands. Consider the physical size constraints of the 1206 package during board space optimization.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Knowles Syfer E01 series of surface-mount EMI filters. These components are engineered for compact designs requiring effective noise suppression without significant impedance changes to the desired signal path. The series supports various capacitance values within standardized package sizes.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 1206 footprint, 100V rating, 82pF value, and three-terminal structure. Verify equivalent insertion loss characteristics at target frequencies. Cross-reference termination materials if lead-free processing is mandatory.
