Ceramic Capacitors (pack of 10) - 0.01uF

Capacitors are a circuit builder's best friend! They quickly step in to stabilize your signals and power supply. Capacitors from 0.1uF - 1uF are excellent all - purpose bypass capacitors. Place them around the power pins of ICs for a smooth power supply. It's smart to have a variety of these on hand. Package Type: Radial Lead Spacing: 2.5mm (perfect for breadboarding or protoboard!) Operating Temperature: -25°C to +85°C Tolerance: ±20% Voltage: 100V (50V for 0.1uF) Need the Datasheet? Get it Here.

Using these ceramic capacitors is easy. First, when building your circuit, identify the power pins of your ICs. Place the capacitors around these pins to ensure a smooth power supply. They work well in breadboarding or on a protoboard due to their 2.5mm lead spacing. When it comes to temperature, make sure the operating environment stays between -25°C and +85°C. Don't expose them to temperatures outside this range as it may affect their performance. Also, keep in mind the tolerance of ±20%. This means the actual capacitance might vary a bit from the stated 0.01uF. And note the voltage requirements: 100V (50V for 0.1uF). Using a voltage higher than the specified value can damage the capacitors. For maintenance, just store them in a dry and clean place. They don't need any special care, but keeping them away from moisture and dirt will help them last longer.
