CL10B105KB8NNNC

The CL10B105KB8NNNC is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Samsung, representing a standard component widely used in electronic circuit design and assembly. This capacitor belongs to the CL series family, which is recognized for reliable performance in consumer and industrial applications. As a ceramic capacitor, this component functions as an energy storage and filtering device in electrical circuits. It temporarily stores electrical charge and releases it as needed, making it essential for smoothing voltage fluctuations, decoupling power supplies, and filtering noise in signal pathways. These capacitors are fundamental building blocks in modern electronics, appearing in nearly every PCB design from simple circuits to complex industrial control systems. The "10" designation in the part number indicates a 10-microfarad capacitance value, a commonly specified rating for general-purpose filtering and energy storage applications. The "B" marking refers to the voltage rating class, typically representing components rated for moderate voltage operation suitable for standard consumer and industrial electronics. The package code identifies this as a surface-mount device, specifically in a compact format that enables high-density circuit board layouts—a critical requirement in modern equipment where space constraints are common. Samsung's CL series capacitors are manufactured using multilayer ceramic technology, which provides consistent performance, compact size, and cost-effectiveness compared to alternative capacitor types. These capacitors maintain stable capacitance across typical operating temperature ranges encountered in industrial environments, making them suitable for applications where reliability is important. Common applications for capacitors of this type include power supply circuits in industrial equipment, audio amplification stages, microcontroller decoupling networks, LED lighting drivers, and various control electronics. Engineers frequently specify this exact part when they require a proven, widely-available ceramic capacitor that offers good value, reliable performance, and compatibility with standard automated assembly processes. The CL10B105KB8NNNC is particularly attractive for OEM applications and volume production runs where component standardization reduces procurement complexity and inventory management costs. Its prevalence in the market means broad availability from multiple sources, reducing supply chain risk for manufacturers. For design engineers, choosing this well-established component reduces development risk since its performance characteristics are well-documented through extensive field use across diverse industrial applications. This capacitor is suitable for engineers designing power electronics, industrial automation equipment, telecommunications infrastructure, and consumer devices where dependable capacitive filtering is needed at competitive cost.
