MLCC GRT21BR61C226ME13K

What is GRT21BR61C226ME13K MLCC?

The GRT21BR61C226ME13K is an SMD capacitor manufactured by Murata. Key specs include 22µF capacitance, 16V DC rating, X5R dielectric, and ±20% tolerance. RoHS compliant, it is designed for stable bulk decoupling in space-constrained power rails.

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

Typical Applications & Why This Part Fits

• Consumer IoT modules: 22µF at 16V provides sufficient charge reservoir for intermittent wireless bursts in 3.3V or 5V domains.
• Portable medical devices: ±20% tolerance combined with X5R stability ensures consistent filtering across 0°C to 85°C ambient.
• USB Type‑C power delivery: 0805 footprint fits dense layouts near connectors, and 16V rating comfortably handles 5-12V bus.

Key Features & Advantages

• High capacitance density: 22µF in 0805 reduces board area compared to larger cases.
• X5R temperature characteristic: ±15% change over -55°C to +85°C is predictable for decoupling.
• 16V voltage rating: Offers 2× derating margin on typical 5V rails for improved reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions
