MLCC GCM188R92A102KA37D

What is GCM188R92A102KA37D MLCC?

The GCM188R92A102KA37D is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) from Murata, designed for demanding environments. Its key specs include 1000pF capacitance, 100V rating, X8R dielectric, and a ±10% tolerance, all in a 0603 package. RoHS compliant, this component is ideal for high-temperature and high-voltage circuits requiring stable performance.

✔ RoHS Compliant  /  ✔ 0603  /  ✔ Murata Quality  /  ✔ Long-Term Supply

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• Automotive Engine Control Units: The X8R dielectric (−55°C to +150°C) and 100V rating ensure reliable decoupling in harsh under‑hood environments where standard X7R parts would fail.
• Industrial Power Supplies: Its 1000pF capacitance and high voltage handling suit snubber circuits or EMI filtering in 48V DC‑DC converters, reducing ripple without bulk.
• Base Station Power Amplifiers: The 0603 footprint allows dense PCB layouts, while the ±10% tolerance provides consistent AC coupling performance across frequency.

Key Features & Advantages

• High Temperature X8R Dielectric: Operates up to 150°C with low capacitance drift, surpassing typical X7R limits for automotive and industrial thermal stress.
• 100V Voltage Rating: Offers a large safety margin in 24V‑48V rails, minimizing derating concerns and extending system lifetime.
• Compact 0603 Case Size: Saves PCB space while maintaining robust mechanical strength, enabling miniaturized designs without sacrificing reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Q: What makes GCM188R92A102KA37D different from a standard 0603 MLCC?
   A: Unlike commodity capacitors, this Murata part uses an X8R dielectric rated to 150°C and 100V, combined with a ±10% tolerance—making it suitable for high‑reliability automotive and industrial applications where standard parts lack temperature or voltage headroom.
2. Q: Is GCM188R92A102KA37D RoHS compliant?
   A: Yes, as a Murata product, it is fully RoHS compliant and lead‑free, meeting current environmental regulations.
3. Q: What is the MOQ? Can we get small batches?
   A: We support small‑batch orders and full BOM kitting at SZYY, including fast prototyping supply for early‑stage development.
