CL10X475KQ8NNNC

The CL10X475KQ8NNNC is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Samsung, representing a widely-used passive component in modern electronic circuits. This component belongs to the general category of fixed capacitors, which store and release electrical energy as needed within a circuit. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are fundamental building blocks in virtually every category of electronics, from consumer devices to industrial control systems. They serve critical functions including power supply filtering, signal coupling and decoupling, noise suppression, and high-frequency applications. Their compact size and reliability make them preferred choices in space-constrained designs where performance and longevity are essential. The part designation indicates this is a 1206 package size capacitor, one of the most common surface-mount form factors used in modern PCB assembly. The 1206 package offers a practical balance between handling ease during manufacturing and sufficient physical size for stable electrical performance. This size is standard across consumer, industrial, and automotive electronics, making it a reliable choice for engineers designing products that require straightforward assembly and field serviceability. Samsung's capacitor products are recognized for consistent quality and reliable performance across temperature ranges and operating conditions typical of industrial and commercial applications. The 1006 series and similar MLCC families are engineered to meet the demands of switching power supplies, audio equipment, telecommunications infrastructure, medical devices, and automotive electronics where stable capacitive performance is required. Engineers typically specify this exact part number when replacement or redesign requires compatibility with existing designs, when Samsung's specific manufacturing processes and material composition are preferred for proven reliability, or when the particular electrical characteristics of this capacitor family match circuit requirements more precisely than alternatives. The standardization of the 1206 package across manufacturers also means that specification of this part provides good supply chain flexibility and availability across multiple sourcing options. The multilayer ceramic construction provides excellent frequency response characteristics, making these capacitors suitable for both DC blocking and AC coupling applications, as well as decoupling in power distribution networks where fast transient response is important. The robustness of ceramic dielectric materials ensures stable performance under typical industrial temperature variations and electrical stress conditions encountered in manufacturing and process control equipment. For engineers working with mature product lines or maintaining compatibility with existing platforms, the CL10X475KQ8NNNC represents a proven, readily-available component choice that delivers dependable performance in demanding applications.
