11R102C - Murata Electronics

11R102C Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended land pattern for the 11R102C?
  Murata recommends a land pattern with a pad size of 2.5mm x 1.25mm, with a spacing of 0.5mm between pads. The land pattern should be designed to minimize thermal resistance and ensure good solderability.
• How does the 11R102C capacitor handle high-frequency noise?
  The 11R102C is designed to handle high-frequency noise due to its low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and high self-resonant frequency (SRF). The capacitor's internal construction and materials are optimized to minimize parasitic inductance and capacitance, making it suitable for high-frequency applications.
• Is the 11R102C capacitor suitable for automotive applications?
  Yes, the 11R102C is AEC-Q200 qualified, which means it meets the stringent requirements for automotive applications. It can operate in temperatures ranging from -55°C to 125°C, making it suitable for use in automotive systems.
• What is the maximum ripple current rating for the 11R102C?
  The maximum ripple current rating for the 11R102C is 1.5A RMS at 100kHz, with a temperature derating of 0.5A RMS per 10°C above 85°C. It's essential to ensure that the capacitor is operated within its specified ripple current rating to prevent overheating and premature failure.
• Can the 11R102C be used in high-voltage applications?
  The 11R102C has a rated voltage of 50V, but it can be used in high-voltage applications with proper derating. Murata recommends derating the capacitor by 1.25 times the rated voltage to ensure reliable operation. For example, if the application requires 60V, the capacitor should be derated to 40V (60V / 1.25).
