SMD capacitors and resistors:

Note that there are * (asterisks) in some numbers.

These are coincident values that can mean the measurement in millimeters or inches, as it was
above.

Tips and tricks:

Small capacitors are identified in various ways, in some

cases appear: 10n, 2n2 or 22n, which indicates the capacitance in nanofarads.
But at other times it shows 104, 103 or 102.
In this last case, the capacitance is expressed in picofarads, and the last digit indicates the
number of zeros that must be added to the first two;
to calculate the value in nanofarads, divide the obtained figure by a thousand.
For example, 103 is equal to 10,000 pF which is the same as 10 nF.
It is also used sometimes. 1 what does 0.1 mean F, or 100nF which is the same
thing.

Note: "nF" is read as nanofarad; "pF" is read as picofarad and It reads microfarad.

Some SMD ceramic capacitors use the coding system shown in the table below:

Three symbols are used: the first letter indicates the

component manufacturer.

The second letter indicates the mantissa.

The last symbol is a number that indicates the multiplier.

Capacitance is given in picoFarads (pF).

See three examples on the following pages

Some SMD ceramic capacitors use the coding system shown in the table below:

Example 1:
A capacitor with the code XK2.

"X" represents the manufacturer

"K" represents the value 2.4 (see the table on the side)

"2" represents the multiplier, which in this case is 100.

Therefore, the value of this capacitor is 2.4 x 100 = 240 pF.

Example 2:
A capacitor with the code YG1.

"Y" represents the manufacturer

"G" represents the value 1.8 (see the table on the side)

"1" represents the multiplier, which in this case is 10.

Therefore, the value of this capacitor is 1.8 x 10 = 18 pF.

Some SMD ceramic capacitors use the coding system shown in the table below:

Example 3:
A capacitor with the code ZP3.

"Z" represents the manufacturer

"P" represents the value 3.6 (see the table on the side)

"3" represents the multiplier, which in this case is 1000.

Therefore, the value of this capacitor is 3.6 x 1000 = 3,600 pF.

Normally, SMD ceramic capacitors operate in the range

two pF (picoFarad) more, it is also possible to find in μF.

Tantalum capacitors (which are also considered electrolytic) are also sold in SMD format.
These capacitors have polarity, that is, one positive terminal and the other negative, with the side of
the component with a positive terminal comes with a stripe painted a different color from the rest of the casing, precisely
to indicate polarity.

There are three standards adopted by the industry to define the dimensions of tantalum capacitors:
E.I.A.: Electronic Industries Alliance (American);
I.E.C.Q.: International Electrotechnical Commission Quality Assessment System Electronic Components (European);
E.I.A.J.: Electronic Industries Alliance Japan (Japanese).

The Japanese standard is not fully compatible with the American and European ones. The American and European system defines
4 encapsulations for SMD tantalum capacitors. This standard does not include the height of the components.

To determine the capacitance and voltage of SMD tantalum capacitors, we use some coding systems.
The letter means the working tension.
If you see an SMD tantalum capacitor with the code D475, for example, it means that it operates with a
capacitance of 47 microFarads (μF) and a voltage of 20 Volts.
Another naming system that can be used is a sequence of three numbers followed by the voltage.
nominal of the component.
For example: a capacitor with the code '566 16V' means that it has 56000000 pF, or rather, 56μF.
The voltage of this capacitor is 16 Volts as it will be clearly marked '16V'.
Remember: recognizing an SMD tantalum capacitor is easy.
It will always have a stripe in a different color from the rest of the shell marking the positive pole, it may be yellow.
black, rectangular shape and the encapsulation is usually done with epoxy. See images of capacitors of
SMD tantalum below:

Another coding system for SMD electrolytic capacitors is given below:
An SMD electrolytic capacitor with the code Y aE8 for example, means that:
"Y" is the year of manufacture;
The 'a' represents the voltage of 10 Volts (see the table below).
Note: although the letters representing the voltages are in uppercase in the table, in electrolytic capacitors
SMD they are inserted in lowercase;
The code 'E8' represents a capacitance of 150μF (see the table below).

For example, a capacitor with the inscription '60C' means that

it has a capacitance of 60µF and supports a maximum of 6.3 V.
