1206Y0250682MJTE07

Overview

The Knowles Syfer 1206Y0250682MJTE07 is a Class 2 multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for surface-mount technology. It features an X7R dielectric material and offers a capacitance of 6800 pF with a tolerance of ±20%. The component is rated for a DC voltage of 25 VDC and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. Housed in a standard 1206 (3216 metric) package, it utilizes flexible terminals with a nickel barrier structure.

Feature Summary

• Incorporates FlexiCap technology with flexible soft terminations to enhance mechanical reliability under board flex conditions.
• Features a nickel barrier layer between the termination and the ceramic body to prevent tin whisker growth and improve solderability.
• Utilizes X7R dielectric characteristics to provide stable capacitance performance across a wide operating temperature range.

Applications

• High-reliability electronic assemblies requiring resistance to mechanical stress
• Circuit boards susceptible to flexing during operation or handling
• General-purpose decoupling and filtering in surface-mount designs

Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including the suffix to ensure correct terminal and barrier specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to integration. Check for specific environmental certifications required by your target market regulations. Ensure storage conditions align with moisture sensitivity level requirements to maintain component integrity before reflow soldering.

Selection Notes

Select this component when board flex resistance is critical due to its flexible termination design. The nickel barrier feature addresses specific reliability concerns regarding tin whiskers in high-humidity environments. Compare against standard MLCCs if mechanical robustness outweighs the need for tighter capacitance tolerances inherent in Class 1 dielectrics.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Knowles Syfer FlexiCap series, which specializes in high-reliability capacitors for demanding applications. The 1206Y prefix indicates a 1206 footprint with specific internal construction optimized for durability. It is distinct from standard MLCCs by its specialized termination system designed to mitigate cracking risks.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 1206 footprint, 25V rating, 6800pF value, and X7R dielectric. Verify that any replacement also includes flexible terminations and a nickel barrier if those specific reliability features are required for the application.
