CL31B475KAHNNNE

# CL31B475KAHNNNE - Samsung Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor The CL31B475KAHNNNE is a multilayer ceramic capacitor manufactured by Samsung, designed for use in electronic circuits requiring reliable energy storage and signal filtering. As a ceramic capacitor, this component functions as a passive element that stores electrical energy in an electric field and is commonly used for voltage smoothing, AC coupling, and high-frequency noise suppression across a wide range of industrial and consumer applications. This particular part number belongs to Samsung's established ceramic capacitor family, characterized by a compact surface-mount package that enables efficient PCB integration in space-constrained designs. The component's construction uses multiple layers of ceramic dielectric material with internal electrodes, allowing for capacitance values suitable for general-purpose filtering and decoupling applications. The surface-mount technology makes it ideal for automated assembly processes used in volume manufacturing environments. Ceramic capacitors in this general class are widely specified in power supply circuits, where they provide local energy storage and help reduce voltage ripple. They are also essential in signal conditioning circuits, where they block DC components while passing AC signals, and in high-speed digital circuits, where they mitigate electromagnetic interference and provide decoupling near integrated circuit power pins. Industrial equipment, consumer electronics, automotive control modules, and telecommunications infrastructure commonly incorporate capacitors of this type. The Samsung CL31B475KAHNNNE would typically be selected by engineers when the application requires a cost-effective, compact capacitor with stable performance across operating temperatures. Ceramic capacitors offer several advantages over alternatives: they deliver excellent frequency response characteristics, have minimal equivalent series inductance in surface-mount configurations, exhibit long shelf life and reliable long-term stability, and are available at competitive price points for high-volume production. The specific part number designation indicates a particular combination of capacitance value, voltage rating, tolerance class, and temperature coefficient—factors that make this exact part suitable for specific circuit requirements where alternative capacitor types might be either oversized or inadequate. Engineers choosing this component would typically do so because its electrical characteristics align precisely with design specifications while maintaining compatibility with standard PCB assembly processes. The established reliability record of Samsung's ceramic capacitor lines makes this component a dependable choice for applications where component failure can impact system performance or safety.
