Hi, It is telling you which dielectric material is used for the capacitor, and what performance you can expect.

Hi,
X means minimum temperature range -55degC
5 means maximum temperature range +85degC
R means percentage of capacitance change permitted +/- 15%

X means minimum temperature range -55degC
7 means maximum temperature range +125degC
R means percentage of capacitance change permitted +/- 15%
