Orange Drop Capacitor

Need to determine the value of an Orange Drop cap? Use the code on the capacitor (below the manufacturer's part number) to determine its value, or you can calculate the value below.

Manufacturer Coding

224	capacitance in pico farads - first two digits are significant digits, third digit is the number of digits that follow. In this case: $$22 + 0000 = 220,000 pF = 0.22 µF$$
K	tolerance, F = ±1%, J = ±5%, K = ±10%, etc.
600V	voltage rating (600 volts in this case)
9644	date code (44th week of 1996 in this case)

Please enter the code found on your capacitor in the form to have these calculations performed automatically.
