Product Description

3.3nF Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor (MLCC)

Medium-Frequency Capacitor for Filtering, Decoupling, and Timing Applications

The 3.3nF (0.0033µF) Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor is a versatile mediumvalue capacitor ideal for EMI filtering, decoupling, timing circuits, and audio applications. Available in both throughhole and surfacemount packages, this capacitor provides reliable performance with low ESR for highfrequency noise suppression.

Capacitance value: 3.3nF 0.0033µF 3,300pF (marked as "332" on the component)
Commonly used for power supply decoupling, EMI filtering, RC timing, and audio signal processing
Do not exceed the rated voltage voltage derating is recommended for reliable longterm operation
MLCCs can exhibit capacitance reduction under DC bias - refer to manufacturer datasheets for derating curves

Package Includes

Varies by seller - typically available in:

  1. Tape and reel (SMD) - quantities from 100 to 10,000+ pieces
  2. Bulk packs (throughhole) quantities from 10 to 1,000+ pieces
  3. Cut tape / loose pieces for prototyping
For general-purpose filtering, a 3.3nF X7R 50V capacitor in 0603 or 0805 package is a popular choice
The 332 marking indicates 3.3nF - first two digits are significant, third is multiplier (33 x 10² = 3,300pF)
For precision timing circuits, select NP0/C0G dielectric for ±30ppm/°C temperature stability
This capacitor is ideal for fine-tuning filter circuits for specific frequency ranges
For highreliability automotive applications, select AECQ200 rated variants

Avoid using highK dielectrics (X5R, X7R) in precision timing circuits - capacitance varies with DC bias and temperature

Avoid exceeding rated voltage for 50V rated parts, recommended operating voltage is typically ≤40V

Avoid placing decoupling capacitors too far from ICs increased trace inductance reduces effectiveness at high frequencies
