The MC08CA030D-F is a multilayer RF chip capacitor with a natural mica dielectric, designed for high-frequency, high-power applications where thermal cracking and moisture sensitivity are concerns. It operates with a rated voltage of 100 Vdc and has a capacitance of 3.0 pF with a tolerance of ±0.5 pF. The device is available in the 0805 case size, measuring 2.0 mm in length and 1.25 mm in width, and is compatible with FR4 boards and wave soldering processes. It maintains high Q-factor up to UHF/VHF frequencies, exhibits no capacitance drift over time, voltage, or frequency, and can withstand a dV/dt of 20,000 V/µs. The capacitor is rated for operation from -55°C to +125°C and exceeds a 2 mm bend test for mechanical reliability. Nonmagnetic variants are not applicable to this exact part number.
