I checked some Net resource... there are lot of... but the values are typically in the range 0,02x mm
My typing error: The »classical« circle of diffusion is 1/30 mm = 0.033. This is the value the markings on the lenses are based on. Normally it is better to use a smaller value, especially for digital.
