Capacitor Array: A capacitor Array is a group of capacitors contained within the same package. In the case shown below four capacitors contained within an 8 pin Single In-Line Package [SIP]. A capacitor Array is similar to a capacitor network but do not connect to each other. An array contains capacitors which form no connections between any of the other components. Read more on capacitor networks [graphics and information]. Note that the graphic call a pin with a capacitor is called a capacitor section, while a shorted pin [with no cap] is called a ground lead.
Capacitor Network, 8-Pin SIP Diagram
Graphic of a 8 pin Single In-line Package, with the internal schematic.
Possible capacitor values for a 10-pin SIP are shown below, note the drawing dash numbers [which are different for the 8 pin SIP device].

Capacitor Network, 10-Pin SIP Values
Possible individual ceramic capacitor values as they may be ordered in a 10 pin Single In-line Package, shown above.
Note that the same values are possible in the 8-pin SIP shown above but the drawing dash numbers are different.
Capacitor Values, 10-Pin SIP
The table provides the Defense Supply Center Columbus [DSCC] drawing number [87120] along with a dash number to indicate capacitance value and capacitance tolerance [per dash number].
Capacitor Array, 8-Pin SIP
Four individual capacitors residing in a 8 pin Single In-line Package.
Capacitor Array, 8-Pin SIP
Each pair of leads form a single capacitor.
Note the pin 1 designation on the package.
