1206J2000151MCTE03

Overview

The Knowles Syfer 1206J2000151MCTE03 is a surface-mount multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for high-reliability applications. It features a 1206 (3216 metric) case size with a capacitance of 150 pF and a voltage rating of 100 VDC. The component utilizes C0G/NP0 dielectric material, ensuring stable performance across varying temperatures. It offers a tolerance of ±20% and employs a nickel barrier electrode structure terminated with 100% tin. This device is specifically engineered as an X2Y capacitor to provide enhanced electromagnetic interference suppression.

Feature Summary

• Integrated X2Y architecture for simultaneous common-mode and differential-mode noise filtering
• C0G/NP0 dielectric ensures minimal capacitance variation over temperature and voltage
• Nickel barrier internal electrodes combined with 100% tin external terminations for robust solderability

Applications

• High-frequency bypass and decoupling in sensitive analog circuits
• Electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression in signal lines
• Power supply input filtering for noise reduction

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix E03 against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm terminal configuration and packaging details. Ensure compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment regarding the 1206 footprint dimensions. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation prior to integration into regulated assemblies.

Selection Notes

Select this component when space-constrained designs require integrated noise filtering without additional discrete components. The X2Y topology simplifies layout by reducing the number of required capacitors. Verify that the 100V rating exceeds the peak transient voltages present in the target circuit to prevent dielectric breakdown.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Knowles Syfer MLCC portfolio, which specializes in high-performance ceramic capacitors for demanding environments. The 1206J series denotes standard SMD dimensions, while the J indicates the 100V DC working voltage class within the product line.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 150pF capacitance, 100V rating, C0G dielectric, and X2Y pinout configuration. Generic MLCCs lacking the X2Y structure will not provide equivalent noise filtering performance.
