MLCC GRT188R61C475KE13J

What is GRT188R61C475KE13J MLCC?

The GRT188R61C475KE13J is an SMD capacitor manufactured by Murata (村田). Key specs include CAP CER 4.7UF 16V X5R 0603±10%. RoHS compliant, it is designed for stable decoupling and filtering in space-constrained circuits.

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

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• DC/DC Converter Output Decoupling: The 4.7µF value at 16V offers low ESR and high ripple current handling, ideal for smoothing voltage ripple in intermediate bus converters.
• Power Supply Bypass for ICs: The 0603 footprint matches fine-pitch designs while the X5R dielectric ensures stable capacitance over -55°C to +85°C, critical for logic and processor rails.
• Sensor Module Filtering: With ±10% tolerance, this MLCC provides predictable capacitance for anti-aliasing filters in IoT and wearable sensor interfaces.

Key Features & Advantages

• High Capacitance in 0603: 4.7µF in a compact 0603 case enables board space savings without sacrificing bulk storage.
• 16V Rated Voltage: Sufficient headroom for 3.3V, 5V, and even 12V rails, reducing derating concerns.
• X5R Temperature Stability: Capacitance change within ±15% from -55°C to +85°C ensures reliable performance across operating ranges.

Frequently Asked Questions
