What is the Value of a 101 Capacitor? How to Read it?

A 101 capacitor has a capacitance value of 100 pF, which equals 0.1 nF or 0.0001 µF. It is commonly used in RF circuits, timing circuits, oscillator circuits, signal filtering, sensor circuits and some high-voltage PCB applications. The marking “101” follows the standard three-digit capacitor code. The first two digits form the base number, and … [Read more…]
