NPO/C0G is a temperature coefficient spec. Usually, a low temperature 
coefficient ceramic will also have low dielectric hysteresis. However, I have 
encountered exceptions. It's preferable to use capacitors where the 
manufacturer's data sheet gives a limit on hysteresis. A common spec for a 
"good" capacitor is <0.1% hysteresis.
