MLCCs boast high-capacitance in minuscule package

Murata expands its line of multilayer ceramic capacitors with two chips that provide a capacitance of 100 µF in a tiny 0603-size package. According to the manufacturer, the GRM188C80E107M and GRM188R60E107M are the first such devices to achieve this in the 0603 SMD package.

With a rated voltage of 2.5 V, low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and impedance, and X6SX5R temperature classes, the GRM188 capacitors are suitable for decoupling and smoothing circuits in servers, data centers, and IT environments. The components leverage Murata’s thin layer forming technology and lamination process, which enhance their reliability and stability, contributing to a wide operating temperature range.

GRM188C80E107M capacitors operate over a temperature range of -55°C to +105°C, while GRM188R60E107M capacitors operate from -55°C to +85°C. They are now in production, and samples are available for evaluation. 

Datasheets for these devices were not available at the time of this announcement. For more information about the GRM series of multilayer ceramic capacitors, click the product page link below.
