Condition
Unused NOS. Clean and in good shape with nothing out of the ordinary.
Product Overview
A metallized polyester film capacitor is commonly used for stable signal coupling, filtering, and noise suppression in analog and digital circuits. This 33nF / 0.033µF unit supports film capacitor replacement where tighter tolerance is required. Tip: confirm the 100V DC rating exceeds your circuit’s maximum operating voltage before installing on a PCB.
Marked 333J 100N, this capacitor provides 33nF capacitance with a ±5% tolerance and a 100V DC working voltage. The radial lead configuration allows vertical mounting on standard through-hole boards and compact layouts. Metallized film construction offers self-healing characteristics and consistent electrical performance in timing and audio applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the 333 marking mean?
The 333 code represents 33 multiplied by 1,000 picofarads, which equals 33,000 pF or 33nF (0.033µF).
What tolerance does the J indicate?
The J marking specifies a ±5% capacitance tolerance.
Is this capacitor polarized?
No. This is a non-polarized film capacitor and can be installed in either orientation.
What is the maximum working voltage?
This capacitor is rated for 100V DC. Ensure your circuit voltage does not exceed this rating.
Install it for signal coupling in audio circuits using the ±5% tolerance and radial lead configuration, then seat it through your PCB and trim leads to fit your layout.
