MLCC GCM1885C2A201JA16D

What is GCM1885C2A201JA16D MLCC?

The GCM1885C2A201JA16D is a surface-mount ceramic capacitor (SMD Capacitor) manufactured by Murata. Key specs include 200pF capacitance, 100V voltage rating, C0G/NP0 dielectric, and ±5% tolerance in an 0603 package. RoHS compliant, it is designed for high-frequency stability and long-term reliability in precision circuits.

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

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• High-Frequency Filters & Impedance Matching: C0G/NP0 dielectric delivers ultra-low loss and stable capacitance up to 100V, making it ideal for RF front-end and oscillator circuits.
• Sensor Interface & Data Converters: The ±5% tolerance ensures consistent timing and decoupling accuracy in ADC/DAC reference paths, reducing calibration needs.
• Industrial Control Modules: 100V rating provides ample headroom for 24V–48V bus rails, while Murata’s GCM series construction withstands harsh thermal cycling.

Key Features & Advantages

• C0G/NP0 Dielectric: Virtually no capacitance change with temperature or DC bias, enabling predictable performance across –55°C to +125°C.
• ±5% Tight Tolerance: Guarantees precise capacitance value for resonant circuits, timing networks, and voltage-controlled oscillators.
• 100V Voltage Rating: Supports both low-voltage logic rails and higher-voltage power stages without derating concerns in dense 0603 layout.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Q: What makes GCM1885C2A201JA16D different from a standard MLCC?
   A: Unlike X7R or X5R dielectrics, this part uses C0G/NP0 which exhibits near-zero capacitance drift over temperature and applied voltage, essential for precision analog and RF designs.
2. Q: Is GCM1885C2A201JA16D RoHS compliant?
   A: Yes, as a Murata product, it is standardly RoHS compliant and lead-free, meeting EU directive requirements.
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 and flexible quantity options.
