CL21A226KOQNNNG

# CL21A226KOQNNNG - SAMSUNG Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor The CL21A226KOQNNNG is a multilayer ceramic capacitor manufactured by SAMSUNG, representing a widely-used component in modern electronics. This capacitor belongs to the general-purpose film and ceramic capacitor category, designed to provide stable capacitance across a broad range of circuit applications where reliability and compact form factor are essential requirements. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are fundamental building blocks in power supply circuits, signal coupling and decoupling applications, filtering stages, and timing circuits. Engineers specify ceramic capacitors for applications requiring high volumetric efficiency—the ability to achieve substantial capacitance in minimal board space. This particular part's designation suggests it falls within a standard industrial-grade series suitable for both consumer and industrial equipment manufacturing. The "CL" prefix indicates Samsung's ceramic capacitor line, while the "21A" segment of the part number typically denotes the package size and series family. This component is housed in a compact package format commonly encountered in compact consumer devices, industrial control boards, telecommunications equipment, and automotive electronics. The small footprint makes it ideal for high-density PCB layouts where space constraints are critical. SAMSUNG ceramic capacitors in this family are engineered for general-purpose DC bias applications with moderate voltage requirements typical of logic circuits, analog signal processing, and auxiliary power distribution. These capacitors provide good frequency response characteristics, making them suitable for both low-frequency filtering and high-frequency decoupling applications. The multilayer construction inherently provides superior performance compared to single-layer alternatives, offering lower equivalent series resistance and improved reliability. Engineers often select this specific part number when they require a proven, readily-available component with established manufacturing consistency from a recognized global supplier. SAMSUNG's production quality and extensive distribution ensure design flexibility and supply chain stability across production runs. This part is particularly favored in applications where component standardization across multiple design revisions is desirable, reducing qualification time and maintenance complexity. The capacitor integrates easily into automated assembly processes and meets industry reliability standards applicable to both commercial and industrial equipment. Its widespread adoption means PCB layout libraries and reference designs are commonly available, reducing engineering development time. For designers balancing cost, availability, performance, and board space optimization, this SAMSUNG multilayer ceramic capacitor represents a practical, field-proven solution meeting mainstream industrial and commercial electronics requirements.
