What value is a 103 ceramic capacitor?
The example capacitor has a 3 digit number printed on it (103). The first two digits, in this case the 10 give us the first part of the value. The third digit indicates the number of extra zeros, in this case 3 extra zeros. So the value is 10 with 3 extra zeros, or 10,000.
What does the K on a capacitor stand for?
one thousand pico-Farads
Also, sometimes capacitors are marked with the capital letter K to signify a value of one thousand pico-Farads, so for example, a capacitor with the markings of 100K would be 100 x 1000pF or 100nF.
What value is a 101 capacitor?

What is the value of k in capacitance?
k = relative permittivity of the dielectric material between the plates. k=1 for free space, k>1 for all media, approximately =1 for air. The Farad, F, is the SI unit for capacitance, and from the definition of capacitance is seen to be equal to a Coulomb/Volt.
What is the value of 100nF on a capacitor?
100nF = 0.1µF When designing circuits or using capacitors in any way, it is often useful to have these capacitor conversions in mind as values transition from picofarads to nanofarads and then nanofarads to microfarads.
What is the short form of UF in capacitor?
Paper and electrolytic capacitors are usually expressed in terms of uF (microfarads). Short forms for micro farad include. uF, mfd, MFD, MF and UF. Mica capacitors are usually expressed in terms of pF (micromicrofarads) (picofarads). Short forms for micromicrofarads include pF, mmfd, MMFD, MMF, uuF and PF. A pF is one-millionth of a uF.
What is the nomenclature of a capacitor?
Capacitor conversion nomenclature Although most modern circuits and component descriptions use the nomenclature of µF, nF and pF for detailing capacitor values, often older circuit diagrams, circuit descriptions and even the components themselves may use a host of non-standard abbreviations and it may not always be clear exactly what they mean.
What is the decoder code for a capacitor?
Decoding capacitor codes 0E = 2.5 VDC 2A = 100 VDC 3A = 1 kVDC 0G = 4.0 VDC 2Q = 110 VDC 3L = 1.2 kVDC 0L = 5.5 VDC 2B = 125 VDC 3B = 1.25 kVDC 0J = 6.3 VDC 2C = 160 VDC 3N = 1.5 kVDC 1A = 10 VDC 2Z = 180 VDC 3C = 1.6 kVDC
