Ultra-High Precision Capacitor for RF, Oscillator, and Critical Timing Applications

The 5pF ceramic capacitor is a very smallvalue, highprecision component essential for highfrequency circuits, crystal oscillators, RF tuning, and precision timing applications. This "mini" capacitor is available in both surfacemount and through-hole packages to suit various PCB designs.

Capacitance: 5pF (marked as "5" or "050" on the component)

Voltage Rating: 50V DC

Typical applications: Crystal oscillators, RF matching networks, high-frequency filters, and precision timing circuits

Do not exceed the rated 50V derating is recommended for reliable longterm operation

For high-frequency and oscillator circuits, C0G/NP0 dielectric is strongly recommended for maximum stability

Package Includes

Varies by seller:

Tape and reel (SMD) - quantities from 100 to 15,000+ pieces[citation:1][citation:6]
Cut tape / loose pieces for prototyping
Bulk packs (throughhole radial) quantities from 10 to 1,000+ pieces[citation:12]

For crystal oscillator circuits, always use C0G/NP0 dielectric for stable frequency operation

For RF matching applications, use ±0.1pF or ±0.25pF tolerance for accurate impedance matching[citation:1][citation:2]

This capacitor is ideal for high-frequency applications where very low capacitance and high precision are required

For high-precision timing circuits, ±0.1pF C0G/NP0 parts are the recommended choice

For high-frequency applications, use minimum lead length (or SMD packages) to avoid parasitic inductance

Avoid using generalpurpose dielectrics in precision oscillator circuits - capacitance stability is critical

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

Avoid placing capacitors far from ICs in highfrequency circuits - trace inductance degrades performance
