The C3225Y5V1E106ZT000N is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by TDK Corporation. These components serve as a fundamental building block in electronic circuits, performing functions like decoupling, bypassing, filtering, and energy storage. Given its Y5V dielectric, this capacitor is typically used in applications where a large capacitance change with temperature can be tolerated.

Applications

• Decoupling capacitors in power supplies: Reduces voltage ripple and provides a stable voltage source.
• Bypass capacitors in general electronic circuits: Filters out unwanted noise and provides a low-impedance path for high-frequency signals.
• Filtering in less temperature-sensitive circuits: Smooths out voltage variations in circuits where temperature stability is not critical.
• General-purpose applications in non-critical circuits: Suitable for applications where capacitance drift with temperature is acceptable.

Features

• Capacitance: 10µF (10 microfarads).
• Voltage Rating: 25V.
• Temperature Characteristics: Y5V (+22%/-82% capacitance change from -30°C to +85°C).
• Size: 1210 (EIA standard, 3.2mm x 2.5mm).
• Termination: Sn (Tin) plating.
• RoHS Compliant: Complies with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive.

Benefits

• High Capacitance Value: Provides a significant capacitance value in a relatively small package.
• Cost-Effective: Y5V capacitors are typically less expensive than capacitors with more stable dielectrics.
• Suitable for Non-Critical Applications: Ideal for applications where capacitance drift with temperature is not a major concern.
• Easy to Use: Surface-mount package is compatible with automated assembly processes.

Additional Details

The C3225Y5V1E106ZT000N utilizes a ceramic dielectric material to achieve its capacitance. It is intended for reflow soldering and is compatible with standard SMT assembly equipment. Due to its Y5V temperature characteristic, the capacitance of this component varies significantly with temperature. Therefore, it should be used in applications where this variation is acceptable. The 1210 package size provides a balance between capacitance and physical dimensions.
