MLCC GCM31CR71C106MA64L

What is GCM31CR71C106MA64L MLCC?

The GCM31CR71C106MA64L is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Murata. Key specs include 10µF capacitance, 16V voltage rating, X7R dielectric, 1206 package size, and ±20% tolerance. RoHS compliant, it is designed for stable decoupling and noise filtering in power management circuits.

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

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• Power Supply Decoupling: The 10µF value and 16V rating provide ample charge storage for smoothing voltage ripples in DC/DC converters, while the X7R dielectric ensures stable capacitance across -55°C to +125°C.
• Bypass Capacitor in Portable Devices: The compact 1206 footprint saves board space in smartphones or wearables, and the high capacitance density reduces the number of components needed.
• Filtering in Automotive Infotainment: Murata’s reliability and the ±20% tolerance handle production variations without compromising filter cutoff frequencies in audio or video lines.

Key Features & Advantages

• High Capacitance in 1206 Package: Achieves 10µF without stacking, simplifying PCB layout and lowering assembly cost.
• X7R Temperature Stability: Capacitance change within ±15% over a wide temperature range, ideal for circuits that must perform in harsh environments.
• Murata Quality Assurance: Proven manufacturing consistency ensures low failure rates and long operational life.
