The NP0 (Type 1) low voltage, ultra-stable ceramic chip MLCC capacitor series from SRT Microcéramique offers a vast range of options to suit any demand, including capacitance between 0.47pF to 100nF across a range of chip sizes from 0402 to 2225, wide selection of tolerances (±0.25pF, ±0.5pF, ±0.05%, ±0.1%, ±0.5%, ±1%. ±2%, ±5%, ±10%, ±20% and -20% to +80%), voltages (16V, 25V, 50V or 100V) and a wide range of terminations. As with all SRT-MC components, the NP0 capacitors are popular in safety-critical industries thanks to their excellent quality and reliability, as well as zero ageing rate up to 10000 hours, zero voltage coefficient of capacitance and change of capacitance with frequency, and very low-temperature coefficient of capacitance. Their operating temperature is between -55°C and +125°C.
