CL10B222KC85PNC

The CL10B222KC85PNC is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Samsung, designed for general-purpose filtering and decoupling applications across consumer electronics, industrial control systems, and telecommunications equipment. This surface-mount component represents Samsung's established ceramic capacitor technology, suitable for applications requiring reliable energy storage and signal conditioning. As a 1206-size package capacitor, this component offers a practical balance between compact footprint and handling ease during manufacturing assembly. The ceramic dielectric construction makes it well-suited for high-frequency filtering where stable performance across temperature variations is required. Samsung's CL series capacitors are widely specified in power supply circuits, audio filtering stages, RF applications, and digital signal processing equipment where consistent electrical performance is essential. The part designation indicates this capacitor operates reliably across standard industrial temperature ranges, making it appropriate for both consumer-grade and industrial-grade applications. Engineers commonly select this specific part number when designing circuits that benefit from Samsung's quality standards and proven long-term reliability in production environments. The ceramic MLCC construction provides excellent frequency response characteristics and low equivalent series resistance (ESR), making it effective for high-speed switching circuits and decoupling applications near integrated circuits. This capacitor is frequently used in audio amplifier input and output stages, power distribution networks in computing equipment, RF circuit filtering, and general-purpose DC blocking applications. The 1206 package size makes it compatible with standard automated assembly processes, reducing manufacturing complexity and cost compared to larger package alternatives. Its ceramic composition also provides excellent temperature stability compared to some film-based alternatives, though with different frequency-dependent characteristics that engineers must consider based on their specific circuit requirements. When specifying the CL10B222KC85PNC versus alternatives, engineers value Samsung's manufacturing consistency, established performance in high-volume production environments, and the extensive usage history of this series across multiple industries. The combination of package size, dielectric material, and Samsung's quality assurance processes makes this part a reliable choice for straightforward filtering and energy storage roles where robust long-term performance is more important than extreme performance optimization. This component is RoHS compliant, reflecting current environmental standards required in most industrial and consumer applications. Its established presence in supply chains and widespread compatibility with industry-standard PCB layouts make it a practical choice for both new designs and replacement applications in existing equipment.
