Variable Capacitor 6mm 40pF

The Variable Capacitor 6mm 40pF is a 6 mm trimmer capacitor with a screw adjustment and a maximum capacitance of 40 pF. It is a practical mid-range value for setting oscillator frequency, peaking RF filters and calibrating radio circuits once they are assembled.

Variable Capacitor 6mm 40pF Specifications

• Type: trimmer (variable) capacitor, screwdriver adjusted

Variable Capacitor 6mm 40pF Applications

• Oscillator frequency trimming
• FM transmitter and receiver kits
• Peaking RF and IF filters
• Matching networks for small antennas
• Radio repair and alignment
• RF experiments in electronics classes

What's in the Box

• 1 × 6 mm 40 pF variable capacitor

Tip: Adjust it with a non-metallic trimming tool, because a metal screwdriver and your hand add capacitance and move the setting. Turn slowly while watching the frequency or signal strength, and connect the adjustment-screw side to ground where possible to reduce hand effects.
