One of the most well-liked and commonly used multilayer ceramic capacitors in the world is the Murata Electronics GRM series. For improved frequency response, these general-purpose capacitors are built with high durability, high stability, and low equivalent series resistance (ESR).
Capacitance values for GRM series capacitors range from 0.5 pF to 220 uF, while working voltage ratings range from 4VDC to 50VDC. They possess DC bias properties, which allow them to maintain constant capacitance values even under applied voltage conditions, and are very dependable over a broad temperature range.
According to industry standards, these capacitors are enclosed in small, surface-mount packages with a variety of dimensions and shapes, including 01005, 0603, 0805, 1206, and 1210. These parts are excellent for use in goods that need to be made smaller because of their smaller size and less weight.
Due to their NSF and RoHS compliance, the GRM series capacitors are suitable for use in consumer electronics products. In systems like mobile phones, tablets, LED lights, automotive systems, and industrial equipment, where high performance, durability, and a compact size are crucial, they are commonly employed.
