Product Overview
Panasonic's ECH-U is a stacked metallized PPS film chip capacitor family that published data rates from -55 to +125 degC with a dissipation factor of 0.6 percent or less at 1 kHz. This page is the 151 part, and that three digit code reads 15 x 10 pF, so 150 pF or .00015 uF, not the .0001 uF the old title carried; the title here follows the code. Ten pieces are on the shelf, photographed as one length of carrier tape with nine pockets in the frame, the bodies dark charcoal edge to edge with a shallow round dimple centered on the top face, the bright vertical bands beside them glare on the tape pocket walls rather than end caps, and no printed value visible in this photo.
Key Features
- Capacitance: 150 pF, also written .00015 uF, decoded from the 151 EIA code in the part number
- Voltage: 50 V DC, from the 1H code, per Panasonic's published ECHU(X) decode
- Tolerance: +/-5%, from the J code, per Panasonic's published tolerance codes (G is +/-2%, J is +/-5%)
- Dielectric: stacked metallized PPS film, mold-less construction, per Panasonic's published ECHU(X) data
- Operating range: -55 to +125 degC including temperature rise at the unit surface, per published ECHU(X) data
- Dissipation factor: tan d 0.6% max at 20 degC and 1 kHz, per published ECHU(X) data
- Insulation resistance: 3000 Mohm min at 50 V, 20 degC, 60 s, per published ECHU(X) data
- Reflow: 260 degC max, 95 s max above 220 degC, RoHS compliant, no safety function, per published ECHU(X) data
- Case size: not stated here. Panasonic's current ECHU(X) tables decode X5 and X9 suffixes, and no published table decodes the B5 on this part number
- Mounting: two terminal surface mount chip, ECH-U series
- Verify against Panasonic's published ECHU(X) series data before designing in.
Applications
- Time constant networks where a small stable value has to stay put
- Filtering and frequency shaping stages
- Oscillation and resonance circuits
- Audio circuit positions, as published by Panasonic for this family
Frequently Asked Questions
How many should I order?
Order the count the build needs. Ten is what is here, the whole holding rather than a cut off a full reel, and nine of those ten are the ones you can see sitting in the tape in the photo. A 150 pF chip that flips off the tweezers is gone, so one spare past the board count is honest planning. Shipping is $8 flat rate and free on orders over $28, so small parts like this ship smartest as part of a larger order.
The old title said .0001 uF. Which value am I actually getting?
The part number on this listing is ECH-U1H151JB5, and 151 decodes as 15 x 10 pF, which is 150 pF or .00015 uF. That is the value in the corrected title. No printed value is visible on the bodies in this photo, so the code inside the part number is the only reading available on our end. If your build needs 100 pF specifically, that is a different code (101) and a different part number, so ask us before you order.
A hundred and fifty picofarads is the kind of value nobody thinks about until a loop refuses to settle.
