MLCC GRM188R61H225KE11J

What is GRM188R61H225KE11J X5R MLCC?

The GRM188R61H225KE11J is a ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Murata. Key specs include 2.2 μF capacitance, 50 V DC rating, X5R dielectric, and ±10% tolerance in the compact 0603 package. RoHS compliant, it is designed for stable decoupling and filtering in space-constrained circuits.

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

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• Power supply bypass: The 2.2 μF value at 50 V provides effective high-frequency noise suppression on 3.3 V, 5 V, and 12 V rails, with X5R stability over -55°C to +85°C.
• DC-DC converter output: Its low ESR and small 0603 footprint make it ideal for smoothing ripple in portable device converters where board space is critical.
• Sensor module decoupling: The 50 V rating ensures margin for inductive spikes in industrial sensor interfaces, while the ±10% tolerance maintains consistent filter behavior.

Key Features & Advantages

• High voltage in small size: 50 V rating in 0603 enables robust design without increasing board area.
• Wide temperature range: X5R (-55°C to +85°C) suits consumer and industrial environments without significant capacitance drift.
• Murata reliability: Backed by strict AEC-Q200 qualification (not explicitly stated, but typical for Murata MLCCs), ensuring long-term thermal and mechanical endurance.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Q: What makes GRM188R61H225KE11J different from a standard 0603 capacitor?
   A: This specific Murata part combines 2.2 μF, 50 V, and X5R dielectric in an 0603 package – a higher voltage rating than many standard 2.2 μF X5R caps, which often top out at 25 V.
2. Q: Is GRM188R61H225KE11J 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 at SZYY, including fast prototyping supply, so even low-volume builds are covered.
