Capacitor Code Calculator

Decode common three-digit ceramic capacitor markings into capacitance values in picofarads, nanofarads, and microfarads.

The calculator also recognizes optional F, G, J, K, M, and Z tolerance letters and normalizes lowercase input automatically.

Capacitor Code Calculator

Decode a three-digit ceramic capacitor code and optional tolerance letter into pF, nF, and µF values.

Enter three digits followed by an optional F, G, J, K, M, or Z tolerance code. Letter case does not matter.
