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

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• DC-DC Converter Snubbers: The 250V rating safely suppresses voltage spikes, while C0G/NP0 ensures low loss and minimal drift under switching stress.
• Precision Timing Circuits: ±5% tolerance and ultra-stable C0G dielectric guarantee consistent RC time constants across temperature extremes.
• Automotive High-Voltage Filters: The 0805 package saves board space, and the 1500pF value provides effective decoupling in 48V or 250V bus rails.

Key Features & Advantages

• Class I C0G/NP0 Dielectric: Offers near-zero capacitance change with temperature (−55°C to +125°C) and low ESR for RF/military-grade performance.
• High Working Voltage (250V): Enables direct use in high-potential power lines without derating, reducing the need for series stacking.
• Compact 0805 Footprint: Balances voltage capability with a standard size, easing automated assembly and layout reuse.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Q: What makes GCM21A5C2E152JX01D different from a standard 0805 MLCC?
   A: This Murata part is specifically qualified for 250V operation with C0G/NP0 stability, while many generic 0805 MLCCs are limited to 50V or use less stable X7R dielectrics.
2. Q: Is GCM21A5C2E152JX01D RoHS compliant?
   A: Yes, as a standard Murata product it is fully RoHS compliant and lead-free.
3. Q: What is the MOQ? Can we get small batches?
   A: We support small batch orders and fast BOM kitting at SZYY, including prototyping quantities of this 1500pF high-voltage MLCC.
