Additional Details:

The C2012Y5V1H225ZT000N capacitor utilizes a Y5V dielectric material. Y5V dielectrics are known for their high capacitance values but exhibit significant capacitance variation with temperature and voltage. The operating temperature range is typically -30°C to +85°C, with a capacitance variation of +22%/-82% within that range. The termination finish is typically Tin (Sn), suitable for soldering using reflow soldering techniques. Capacitance tolerance is +/- 80%/-20%. Due to its wide capacitance variation, it's not suitable for applications requiring precision.
