C2012X7R1C334K – TDK

Overview

The TDK C2012X7R1C334K is a 0.33 µF, 16VDC multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for robust filtering and decoupling applications. Its X7R dielectric offers a stable capacitance across a wide temperature range (-55°C to +125°C), making it suitable for demanding environments. A critical design consideration with X7R dielectrics is the voltage coefficient of capacitance (VCC), where capacitance can decrease significantly at higher DC bias voltages, necessitating careful selection based on the worst-case operating voltage to avoid performance degradation.
