NCP03XH103D05RL - Murata Electronics

NCP03XH103D05RL Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended land pattern for the NCP03XH103D05RL?
  Murata recommends a land pattern with a pad size of 1.3mm x 0.8mm, with a spacing of 0.5mm between pads. The recommended land pattern is available in the Murata Capacitor Land Pattern document.
• Can I use the NCP03XH103D05RL in a high-temperature environment?
  The NCP03XH103D05RL is rated for operation up to 125°C, but derating is required above 85°C. Consult the datasheet for specific derating guidelines. Additionally, ensure that the capacitor is used within its specified temperature range to maintain reliability and performance.
• How do I handle the NCP03XH103D05RL during assembly to prevent damage?
  Handle the capacitor by the body, avoiding touching the terminals. Use a vacuum pickup or tweezers to handle the component. Avoid bending, flexing, or applying excessive force, which can cause damage or internal cracks.
• What is the recommended soldering profile for the NCP03XH103D05RL?
  Murata recommends a soldering profile with a peak temperature of 260°C, a dwell time of 10-30 seconds, and a cooling rate of 2-4°C/second. Consult the Murata Soldering Guidelines document for more detailed information.
• Can I use the NCP03XH103D05RL in a humid or moist environment?
  The NCP03XH103D05RL is not suitable for use in humid or moist environments. It is recommended to use a capacitor with a higher moisture resistance rating, such as the NCP03XH103D05RL with a moisture-resistant coating, or to implement additional moisture protection measures.
