Product Overview
Panasonic's published 50 V capacitance range for this stacked metallized PPS film chip family runs to .10 uF, which puts this part near the top of it. The 683 code reads 68 x 1000 pF, so 68000 pF or .068 uF, the same value the title carried, and the J letter sets tolerance at +/-5% rather than the +2% the old feature list quoted. Ten pieces are on the shelf, photographed close in: five bodies fill the frame with the leftmost clipped by the edge, each one gray with a shallow round dimple centered on the top face, sitting in carrier tape on a paper backing inside a poly bag, with a pen tip below for scale.
Key Features
- Capacitance: .068 uF, also written 68000 pF or 68 nF, decoded from the 683 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
- Published 50 V capacitance range for the series: .00010 uF to .10 uF in E12 steps, per Panasonic
- 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
- Withstand voltage between terminals: rated voltage x 150% for 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 B9 on this part number
- Verify against Panasonic's published ECHU(X) series data before designing in.
Applications
- Audio circuit positions, as published by Panasonic for this family
- Filtering where a film part is wanted instead of a ceramic
- Time constant networks
- Oscillation and resonance circuits
Frequently Asked Questions
How many should I order?
Order the count the build needs and keep it in one order. Ten pieces is the shelf count at this listing, and the five bodies filling the photo are part of that same taped strip. Shipping is $8 flat rate and free on orders over $28, so small parts like this ship smartest as part of a larger order.
What footprint should I lay out for it?
Measure before you commit. We are not stating a case size on this one: Panasonic's current ECHU(X) suffix tables decode X5 and X9, and nothing published decodes the B9 that ends this part number, so any size we printed would be a guess. Panasonic's own family size codes run from 1.6 x 0.8 mm up to 6.0 x 4.1 mm across the series, which is a wide spread, so treat the pen tip in the photo as rough scale only and check the part against your pads.
Sixty-eight thousand picofarads on a body small enough that the pen tip in the photo looks like a crowbar.
