102J-100V Capacitor

Description

The 102J-100V Capacitor is a polyester film box capacitor designed for use in compatible electronic circuits. It has a capacitance of 1nF and a rated voltage of 100V. Its compact box-type construction makes it suitable for electronic assemblies that require a capacitor with matching electrical specifications.

Capacitance and Voltage Rating

The marking 102 represents a capacitance of 1nF, equivalent to 1,000pF or 0.001µF. The letter J generally indicates a capacitance tolerance of ±5%. The 100V marking identifies the capacitor’s rated voltage.

These specifications help identify the correct component for a circuit. Before purchasing or replacing a capacitor, verify the capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, and physical dimensions against the requirements of the original component.

Polyester Film Construction

Polyester film capacitors use polyester film as their dielectric material. They are used in electronic circuits where their electrical characteristics are appropriate for the intended application.

The box-type package provides a compact component format for compatible printed circuit boards and electronic assemblies. Dimensions and lead spacing may vary between component designs, so check these details before installation.

Applications

The 102J-100V Capacitor may be used in electronic circuits where a 1nF polyester film capacitor with a suitable voltage rating is specified.

Potential applications include:

• Electronic circuit boards
• Signal coupling circuits
• Filtering applications
• Electronic equipment repair
• DIY electronics projects
• Other compatible circuits requiring a 1nF capacitor

The correct application depends on the circuit design. Confirm that the capacitance, capacitor type, and voltage rating are suitable for the intended circuit position.

Compact Box-Type Design

The box-type construction provides a compact shape for installation in compatible electronic equipment. When selecting a capacitor for an existing circuit board, check its dimensions, lead spacing, and mounting requirements.

A capacitor with a similar appearance may have a different capacitance or voltage rating. Always confirm the printed markings and specifications before selecting a replacement.

Replacement and Compatibility

Before replacing an existing capacitor, verify the required capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, physical dimensions, and lead spacing. Ensure that the selected component meets the circuit’s operating requirements.

The voltage across the capacitor must remain within its rated limit. Installation should be carried out with the equipment disconnected from its power source and with appropriate electronics safety precautions.

Product Summary

The 102J-100V Capacitor is a polyester film box capacitor with a capacitance of 1nF and a voltage rating of 100V. Its compact construction makes it suitable for compatible electronic circuits and circuit boards that require these specifications.

It can be considered for filtering, signal coupling, and other applications when supported by the circuit design. Check the original component markings and circuit requirements before purchasing or installing the capacitor to ensure compatibility.
