RFCS04028200CJTWS

Overview

The RFCS04028200CJTWS is a silicon-based radio frequency capacitor manufactured by Vishay Electro-Films. It features a nominal capacitance of 8.2 pF with a tolerance of ±5%. The component is rated for a breakdown voltage of 25 V and operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +125 °C. It utilizes a 0402 (1005 metric) surface mount package with dimensions of 1.0 mm in length, 0.5 mm in width, and 0.38 mm in height. The device is designed for high Q factor performance in RF applications.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes silicon technology for stable RF performance
• High Q factor suitable for radio frequency circuits
• Compact 0402 surface mount package design

Applications

• RF matching networks
• High frequency filtering
• Impedance matching circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'W' against official Vishay documentation to confirm packaging details, as standard suffixes may indicate tape and reel configurations. Ensure the part number matches the exact capacitance and tolerance requirements for the target RF circuit design before ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small form factor silicon capacitor is required for RF signal paths. Consider the 25 V breakdown rating and the specified temperature range to ensure compatibility with the operating environment. Verify that the 8.2 pF value aligns with the circuit's impedance matching or filtering needs.

Part Context

This part belongs to the RFCS series of silicon capacitors from Vishay Electro-Films. These components are engineered to replace traditional ceramic capacitors in high-frequency applications where size and stability are critical. The series offers various capacitance values in compact packages.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes such as RFCS04028200CJTT1 if different packaging is required. Ensure any replacement maintains the same 8.2 pF capacitance, 5% tolerance, and 0402 footprint to preserve circuit performance.
