CL10B102JA8NNNC

The CL10B102JA8NNNC is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Samsung, designed for general-purpose filtering and decoupling applications across a wide range of electronic equipment and industrial systems. This component represents Samsung's established line of reliable ceramic capacitors widely used in consumer electronics, industrial control boards, telecommunications equipment, and automotive applications. MLCCs are fundamental passive components used to store and release electrical energy, filter noise from power supplies, couple or decouple AC signals, and stabilize voltage in circuits. The CL10B series designation indicates this is a compact surface-mount capacitor in a standard 0402 package size, making it suitable for high-density PCB designs where space constraints are a concern. This small form factor allows designers to populate boards efficiently while maintaining the electrical performance required for modern electronics. Samsung's ceramic capacitor offerings are recognized in the industry for consistent manufacturing quality and reliable long-term performance in demanding environments. Components in this series are typically specified for use in temperature-stable applications requiring predictable capacitive behavior across operational temperature ranges. The multilayer construction provides good electrical performance relative to the compact package size, making these capacitors a cost-effective choice for volume applications. Engineers commonly specify this exact part number when design requirements call for a surface-mount ceramic capacitor in a very small footprint with the electrical characteristics typical of Samsung's mid-range offering. The 0402 package is a mature, well-established standard that integrates easily with automated assembly processes and is compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment found in most manufacturing facilities. This standardization reduces supply chain complexity compared to more specialized or proprietary component formats. The CL10B series suits applications ranging from logic circuit supply bypassing to signal conditioning in measurement equipment. Typical use cases include voltage regulation in switching power supplies, high-frequency noise filtering near processor cores, and general-purpose decoupling on mixed-signal boards where space is limited. The component's widespread adoption in production electronics reflects its balance of performance, size, cost, and manufacturing maturity. Designers select this particular part when they need a proven, readily available MLCC in a minimal footprint with Samsung's quality assurance backing. The 0402 size also offers advantages in rework scenarios and hand assembly applications where access space is limited. Whether for replacement components in repair work or new production designs requiring reliable, predictable capacitive filtering in compact spaces, this part provides a straightforward solution in a commonly stocked format.
