High-Frequency Capacitor for Oscillator, RF, and Tuning Applications

The 30pF Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor is a precision smallvalue capacitor ideal for crystal oscillator circuits, RF matching, highfrequency filtering, and timing applications. Available in both surfacemount and throughhole packages, this capacitor provides excellent stability with very low ESR for high-performance applications [citation:5].

Capacitance value: 30pF (often marked as "30" or "300" on the component) [citation:11]

Commonly used for crystal oscillators, RF circuits, high-pass filters, and antenna matching

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

For high-frequency and oscillator circuits, use C0G/NP0 dielectric for maximum stability [citation:5]

Package Includes

Varies by seller - typically available in:

Tape and reel (SMD) - quantities from 100 to 10,000+ pieces [citation:1][citation:9]
Bulk packs (throughhole) quantities from 10 to 1,000+ pieces
Cut tape / loose pieces for prototyping

For crystal oscillator circuits with 8-16MHz crystals, 30pF is a common loading value

Use C0G/NP0 dielectric for stable frequency operation over temperature changes [citation:5]

For RF matching applications, use ±5% tolerance for accurate impedance matching [citation:2][citation:6]

This capacitor is ideal for crystal loading with 12pF to 30pF range - check your crystal datasheet

For high-precision timing circuits, C0G/NP0 parts are the recommended choice [citation:5]

For high-frequency applications, use minimum lead length to avoid parasitic inductance

Avoid using X7R dielectric in precision timing or VCO circuits capacitance varies with temperature and DC bias [citation:5]

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
