MTC2S1212MC-R13 - Murata Electronics

MTC2S1212MC-R13 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended land pattern for the MTC2S1212MC-R13?
  Murata recommends a land pattern with a pad size of 1.3mm x 0.8mm, and a spacing of 0.5mm between pads. A detailed land pattern can be found in the Murata's recommended land pattern document.
• How do I handle the thermal considerations for the MTC2S1212MC-R13?
  The MTC2S1212MC-R13 has a thermal resistance of 10°C/W. To ensure reliable operation, it's recommended to provide a thermal pad on the PCB, and to use a thermal interface material (TIM) with a thermal conductivity of at least 1 W/m-K. Additionally, ensure good airflow around the component.
• What is the maximum operating temperature range for the MTC2S1212MC-R13?
  The MTC2S1212MC-R13 has an operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. However, it's recommended to derate the component's performance at temperatures above 85°C to ensure reliable operation.
• How do I ensure the MTC2S1212MC-R13 is properly soldered?
  Murata recommends using a reflow soldering process with a peak temperature of 260°C and a dwell time of 30 seconds. Ensure the soldering iron is set to a temperature of 350°C, and use a solder with a melting point of 217°C to 221°C.
• What is the recommended storage condition for the MTC2S1212MC-R13?
  Store the MTC2S1212MC-R13 in a dry, cool place with a temperature range of 5°C to 30°C and a relative humidity of 60% or less. Avoid exposing the component to direct sunlight, moisture, or extreme temperatures.
