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

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• Power Supply Decoupling: The 10µF capacitance combined with the X7S temperature stability ensures clean voltage rails for ICs operating from –55°C to +125°C, while the 25V rating handles common 3.3V–24V supplies.
• DC‑DC Converter Output Filtering: Low ESR and 0805 package allow tight placement near converters, reducing ripple on 5V or 12V outputs without sacrificing board space.
• I/O Line Bypassing: The ±20% tolerance is cost‑effective for decoupling high‑speed digital lines, and the X7S ceramic offers minimal capacitance change under bias voltage.

Key Features & Advantages

• High Capacitance in 0805: Achieves 10µF in a compact footprint, enabling dense PCB layouts for portable and IoT devices.
• Stable X7S Dielectric: Capacitance variation within ±22% over –55°C to +125°C, making it reliable for automotive and industrial temperature ranges.
• RoHS & Lead‑Free Compliance: Fully compatible with reflow soldering processes and environmental regulations, streamlining global production.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Q: What makes GRM21BC71E106ME01K different from a standard X5R capacitor?
   A: The X7S dielectric provides better temperature stability and a wider operating range than X5R, ensuring consistent 10µF performance from –55°C to +125°C compared to X5R’s –55°C to +85°C.
2. Q: Is GRM21BC71E106ME01K 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, including fast prototyping supply.
