GRM32ER71E226KE15L

The GRM32ER71E226KE15L from Murata Electronics is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) in the GRM general-purpose series. It's a small, surface-mount component used for decoupling and bypassing unwanted noise in electronic circuits. Here's a breakdown of its key features:

Specifications:

• Capacitance: 22 µF ± 10% (microfarads, a unit of electrical capacitance)
• Rated voltage: 25 VDC (volts direct current, the maximum voltage it can withstand without breaking down)
• Temperature range: -55°C to +125°C (operating temperature range)
• Package size: 1210 (3.2 mm x 2.5 mm footprint)
• Termination: Tin (Sn) plating for excellent solderability
• Series resistance: Typically 35 mΩ (milliohms, a measure of the electrical resistance of the capacitor)
• Resonant frequency: Typically 2.4 GHz (gigahertz, the frequency at which the capacitor exhibits self-resonance)

Features:

• General-purpose design: Suitable for a wide range of applications requiring decoupling and noise suppression.
• High reliability: X7R dielectric material offers excellent stability and performance over temperature and voltage changes.
• Compact size: Ideal for high-density PCB layouts and miniaturized electronics.
• RoHS and REACH compliant: Meets environmental regulations for lead-free and restricted substances.

Applications:

• Decoupling power supply lines to remove unwanted noise caused by switching circuits.
• Bypassing high-frequency noise in data lines and signal paths.
• Filtering noise in audio circuits and other sensitive electronics.
• General-purpose capacitor for various electronic devices.
