MLCC GCM21BC7YA225KE02L

What is GCM21BC7YA225KE02L MLCC?

The GCM21BC7YA225KE02L is a 2.2µF ±10% 35V X7S SMD capacitor manufactured by Murata. Key specs include an 0805 package and stable X7S dielectric. RoHS compliant, it is designed for reliable 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 Smoothing: With 2.2µF at 35V, it absorbs ripple in 5V–24V rails, while X7S ensures minimal capacitance loss under bias.
• Power Supply Input Filtering: The 0805 form factor fits dense PCB layouts, and the ±10% tolerance keeps BOM variance low for mass production.
• Automotive Infotainment Systems: Murata’s GCM series is AEC-Q200 qualified — the 35V rating and X7S stability meet harsh environment requirements.

Key Features & Advantages

• High Capacitance Density: 2.2µF in an 0805 package reduces board space compared to larger footprints.
• Broad Voltage Headroom: Rated 35V allows derating in 12V and 24V systems, improving long-term reliability.
• Temperature Stable X7S: Capacitance changes only ±22% over -55°C to +125°C, critical for industrial and automotive circuits.
