C2012X8R1E224K – TDK

Overview

The TDK C2012X8R1E224K is a 0.22 µF, 25V X8R dielectric multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for demanding thermal environments. Its X8R formulation offers excellent capacitance stability across a wide temperature range, from -55°C to +150°C, making it ideal for applications where ambient temperature fluctuations are significant. A key design consideration with X8R dielectrics, however, is their susceptibility to capacitance loss under applied DC bias, which engineers must account for during component selection to ensure reliable circuit operation. This robust MLCC, in its compact 2012 (0805 imperial) package, provides a reliable solution for filtering and decoupling in high-temperature scenarios.
