can anyone help me give the exact value og 2A473J caps and 2A104J in nano farad nd microfarad? plssss :)
The value is in between the letters, so 473 and 104 for those.
The first 2 digits are significant, the 3rd digit is the multiplyer, giving the value in pico-farads. So for the multiplyer, add that many zeros to the significant digits.
So in this case, 47000, and 100000 pico-farads.
To convert to nanofarads, move decimal place 3 digits to the left. You get 47 and 100 nano.
To convert to microfarads, you move decimal place 6 digits to the left (from pico).
So .047 and .1 microfarads.
so 2a104j and 2a473j are same with 100nf and 47nf film caps? right?
Yes, 100nF and 47nF. They should also have a voltage marked on them. Do not use them in a circuit that will exceed the voltage rating.
what do you mean on that? the rating is 100v..if my circuit is can be powered max at 12v,is it ok?
Yes, of course.
thanks JMF
