With a tolerance letter

Marking	Tolerance	Minimum	Maximum
`224J`	±5%	0.209 µF	0.231 µF
`224K`	±10%	0.198 µF	0.242 µF
`224M`	±20%	0.176 µF	0.264 µF

Other ways it's marked

On schematics and parts lists, the same capacitor appears as 220n, 220 nF or 0.22 µF.

Where it's used

Values from 1 nF to 1 µF are used for filtering, timing and signal coupling. Ceramic X7R capacitors and film capacitors are the usual choice.

Frequently asked questions

What is the value of a 224 capacitor?

220,000 pF, the same as 220 nF or 0.22 µF.

Is 224 the same as 220n?

Yes. 224 is the 3-digit code and 220n is the letter code for the same 220 nF.

What does the letter after 224 mean?

It's the tolerance: 224J is ±5%, 224K is ±10% and 224M is ±20%.

Does the code 224 show the voltage?

No. The voltage is printed separately (such as 50V, or a code like 2A, which means 100 V) or only given in the datasheet. Replace it with a capacitor rated for the same voltage or higher.
