SMD capacitors most extensively used for capacitor requirements on the PCB which are perfect for large scale manufacturing. SMD capacitor one of the derivatives of SMT (surface mount technology) having small and easy to place components which enhances the manufacturing speed.

The application is an easy-to-use SMD-code calculator for calculating the resistance of a resistor. The application supports the 3-digits, 4-digits, and EIA-96 coding systems.

Ceramic, tantalum, electrolytic capacitors are few of the available options when it comes to SMD capacitor. ceramic capacitors are easy and cost-effective to manufacture and thus most widely used.

What is an SMD capacitor?

SMD capacitor is nothing but a capacitor with compact size and no long lead. It is developed in such a way that it offers an advantage for mass production of electronic devices and equipment, along with some technical advantage in the operation of high-frequency devices.

Advantage of SMD capacitor:

SMD capacitor has no leads or very short lead, the inductive effect of leads are avoided ( its importance comes into the picture when we are working on high-frequency circuits and radio circuits ‘RF range’).
Eg. while designing a tank circuit using LC, if the leads of the capacitor are not kept short then it will oscillate at different frequencies than that we have designed.
The size of the surface mount capacitor is smaller than the traditional capacitor space and the device can be confined in a smaller area, useful in portable devices.
An increase in the manufacturing speed, therefore, reduction in cost is possible.
Due to the standard size, it is much easier to handle and place on PCB using the robotic assembly process.

Disadvantage of SMD capacitor:

Its advantages have an upper hand than that of disadvantages. Why we are saying its disadvantages are very few and can be neglected.

One disadvantage is its size when it comes to repairing. Suppose you’re considering to replace it then it is a little bit arduous work.
Lower heat capacity of a smaller capacitor can damage it if proper cooling ventilation is not given. Surface mount components lower operating temperatures than the traditional one.

Common capacitor value with codes in a chart:

Common capacitor value for SMD capacitor is almost same as ceramic and electrolytic capacitors. Below table have all the common capacitor values listed that are useful for you.

For code “104″
The two figures 10 indicate the significant figures and the 4 indicates the multiplier , i.e. 10^4 = 10000.
Therefore, the value comes out to be 100000 pf = 0.1 uf

There is a certain range of capacitors which is very commonly used with PCB and in the circuits. The common capacitor code is given below so that it is easier to remind it whenever required while studying or designing the circuits:

Are SMD capacitor polarized?

YES, SMD capacitors are polarized but not all SMD capacitors are polarized. The electrolytic SMD capacitor compulsorily comes with the polarity and has its dedicated applications.
They are normally yellow and black color with markings on it.

How to identify SMD capacitor polarity?

The polarity of surface mount capacitors is marked by a white or black line at one of the ends of the device. Note that on a rounded surface mount capacitor the small black corner indicates the negative side. This line/bar indicates the positive terminal of the capacitors as shown in the figure above.

How do you know the capacitor is nonpolar?

If no indication like a bar or colored dash is present on the capacitor then it is a nonpolar capacitor. This nonpolar ceramic capacitor generally brown, yellowish-brown or grey in color.
SMD resistors are generally black in color.

How to test a SMD capacitor?

If your surface mount capacitor does not have a code written on it then follow the following steps:

Step1– Remove your capacitor from the PCB ( it is not possible to test the component without removing it from the board)

Step2-Put your multimeter to the Mega-ohm range. And connect the positive of multimeter to the posi
