MLCC GRM21BC8YA106KE11K

What is GRM21BC8YA106KE11K MLCC?

The GRM21BC8YA106KE11K is a surface-mount ceramic capacitor manufactured by Murata (村田). Key specs include 10µF capacitance, 35V voltage rating, X6S dielectric, 0805 package, and ±10% tolerance. RoHS compliant, it is designed for high-reliability decoupling and filtering in space-constrained designs.

✔ RoHS Compliant  /  ✔ 0805 Package  /  ✔ Murata Quality  /  ✔ Long-Term Supply

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• DC-DC Converter Output Filtering: The 10µF capacitance and 35V rating provide stable bulk decoupling for converters up to 35V rails, while the X6S dielectric maintains capacitance across -55°C to +105°C.
• Power Line Smoothing in IoT Modules: The compact 0805 size fits dense PCB layouts, and the ±10% tolerance ensures predictable performance for wireless transceiver power supplies.
• Automotive Infotainment Bypass Caps: Murata’s AEC-Q200 qualified process (inherent in this series) offers reliability for infotainment systems, with X6S temperature stability critical for dashboard operation.

Key Features & Advantages

• High Voltage in Small Package: 35V rating in 0805 footprint enables use in 24V systems without oversizing.
• X6S Dielectric Stability: Low capacitance change under DC bias compared to X5R, ensuring consistent filtering performance.
• ±10% Tolerance Precision: Tighter than standard ±20% parts, reducing design margin requirements for timing or impedance-sensitive circuits.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Q: What makes GRM21BC8YA106KE11K different from a standard 0805 MLCC?
   A: It combines 35V rating with X6S dielectric and ±10% tolerance — offering higher voltage capability plus stable temperature coefficient, whereas many standard 0805 MLCCs are limited to 25V or use X5R with wider tolerance.
2. Q: Is GRM21BC8YA106KE11K RoHS compliant?
   A: Yes, as a Murata product, it is standardly RoHS compliant and lead-free.
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 with flexible quantity.
