Product Description

680pF Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor (MLCC)

High-Frequency Capacitor for RF, Timing, and Filtering Applications

The 680pF (0.68nF) Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor is a standard smallvalue capacitor ideal for highfrequency circuits, RF applications, timing circuits, and EMI filtering. Available in both throughhole and surfacemount packages, this capacitor provides excellent stability with very low ESR for high-performance applications.

Capacitance value: 680pF 0.68nF 0.00068µF (marked as "681" on the component)
Commonly used for RF matching, crystal oscillators, high-pass filters, and EMI suppression
Do not exceed the rated voltage voltage derating is recommended for reliable longterm operation
For high-frequency circuits, use NP0/C0G dielectric for maximum stability

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 RF matching applications, use NP0/C0G dielectric for stable performance
The 681 marking indicates 680pF - first two digits are significant, third is multiplier (68 x 10¹ = 680pF)
For high-voltage applications, select 1kV rated variants
This capacitor is ideal for crystal loading with 12pF to 30pF range - check your crystal datasheet
For high-precision timing circuits, ±1% NP0/C0G parts are the recommended choice
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

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
