CL05A104KP6NNNC

The CL05A104KP6NNNC is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Samsung. This component belongs to the general-purpose capacitor category and is designed for use in a wide variety of electronic circuits and applications where stable capacitance and reliable performance are required. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this model are among the most widely used passive components in modern electronics. They function by storing electrical charge between multiple layers of ceramic dielectric material and metal electrodes, making them essential for filtering, decoupling, coupling, and energy storage functions across consumer, industrial, and telecommunications equipment. The "CL05" designation indicates this capacitor features a 0402 metric package size, which is one of the smallest surface-mount form factors commonly used in contemporary electronics manufacturing. This compact footprint makes it ideal for high-density PCB designs where space is at a premium, such as mobile devices, IoT sensors, automotive control modules, and compact industrial instrumentation. The small size also contributes to lower parasitic inductance, which can be advantageous in higher-frequency applications. Samsung's capacitor products in this series are engineered to deliver consistent performance across typical industrial temperature ranges and are suitable for standard lead-free soldering processes compatible with modern manufacturing practices. The ceramic dielectric material used in this component offers good stability and reliability, making it appropriate for general-purpose applications that don't require specialized high-voltage, high-temperature, or low-ESR characteristics. Engineers commonly specify Samsung MLCCs for their reliability, availability, and cost-effectiveness. When selecting this particular part number, engineers might choose it for applications where the specific capacitance value and voltage rating align with their circuit requirements, where the 0402 package size fits their PCB layout constraints, or where Samsung's quality and lead-time reliability are preferred over alternatives. This capacitor would typically appear in applications such as power supply circuits, signal filtering networks, oscillator circuits, and general decoupling applications in consumer electronics, industrial control systems, and communications equipment. Its small package and ceramic construction make it resistant to mechanical stress and thermal cycling, contributing to long-term reliability in demanding environments. For precise electrical specifications including capacitance value, voltage rating, tolerance, and temperature coefficient relevant to this specific part number, reference to the manufacturer's documentation is recommended to ensure proper circuit design and component selection.
