C0G (NP0) Dielectric
022620
General Specications
C0G (NP0) is the most popular formulation of the “temperature-compensating,” EIA Class I ceramic
materials. Modern C0G (NP0) formulations contain neodymium, samarium and other rare earth oxides.
C0G (NP0) ceramics offer one of the most stable capacitor dielectrics available. Capacitance change
with temperature is 0 ±30ppm/°C which is less than ±0.3% C from -55°C to +125°C. Capacitance drift or
hysteresis for C0G (NP0) ceramics is negligible at less than ±0.05% versus up to ±2% for lms. Typical
capacitance change with life is less than ±0.1% for C0G (NP0), one-fth that shown by most other
dielectrics. C0G (NP0) formulations show no aging characteristics.
