CL10A106KP8NNNC

The CL10A106KP8NNNC is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Samsung, representing a reliable passive component widely used across industrial and consumer electronics applications. This component belongs to the general-purpose ceramic capacitor family and is designed to handle common circuit functions including filtering, decoupling, and signal coupling in electronic assemblies. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are fundamental building blocks in modern electronics, valued for their small physical footprint, cost-effectiveness, and consistent electrical performance across temperature and frequency ranges. The CL10 series designation indicates this is a standard industrial-grade capacitor suitable for general applications where moderate performance requirements and long-term reliability are important considerations. The 10 in the part designation refers to the capacitor's physical case size, which represents a compact form factor commonly mounted on circuit boards using surface-mount assembly processes. This compact packaging allows designers to maximize board space efficiency while maintaining good electrical performance, a key consideration in dense electronic assemblies where real estate is limited. Samsung's manufacturing standards ensure consistent quality and predictable behavior in production environments. Engineers typically specify this particular part number when designing circuits that require general-purpose energy storage and filtering capabilities without specialized high-voltage or high-frequency requirements. The component performs well in standard voltage applications and temperature environments typical of most industrial equipment, consumer devices, and embedded systems. Its widespread availability across the electronics supply chain makes it an economical choice for high-volume manufacturing. Common application areas for capacitors of this type include power supply circuits, audio equipment, instrumentation, telecommunications hardware, automotive electronics, and various consumer products. In these applications, the capacitor functions to smooth voltage fluctuations, block direct current while passing alternating signals, filter electromagnetic noise, and stabilize circuit operation. The decision to specify this exact part often comes down to balancing performance needs with cost considerations. Samsung MLCCs are recognized for consistent quality and long operational life, making them suitable for applications where reliability matters. Engineers also choose this part when existing designs or qualification standards already call for Samsung components, or when the electrical characteristics match known circuit requirements perfectly. As a mature, widely-used component, the CL10A106KP8NNNC benefits from extensive manufacturing history and established supply networks, factors that contribute to its reliability and availability for ongoing production requirements.
