CL31C222JHHNFNE

The CL31C222JHHNFNE is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Samsung, belonging to the CL31 series. This component is a passive electronic element designed to store and release electrical energy in circuits, making it essential for power distribution, filtering, signal coupling, and noise suppression applications across a wide range of industrial and consumer electronics. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this model are among the most widely used capacitor types in modern electronics due to their compact size, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. The CL31 series represents Samsung's offering in the standard MLCC market segment, providing dependable performance for general-purpose applications where space is at a premium and consistent electrical characteristics are required. The part number designation "222" in the CL31C222JHHNFNE indicates the capacitance value in the standard three-digit code common to capacitors. This component is housed in a surface-mount package, allowing it to be incorporated into printed circuit boards through automated assembly processes, which is standard practice in modern manufacturing. Engineers typically specify this exact part number when designing circuits that require a specific capacitance value combined with Samsung's quality standards and consistent availability. The CL31 series is recognized for delivering stable performance across typical industrial operating conditions, making it suitable for applications including switching power supplies, DC-DC converters, audio equipment, telecommunications infrastructure, consumer electronics, and automotive control modules. The robustness of Samsung MLCCs in this series makes them particularly valuable in applications where reliability is critical and component replacement costs are high relative to the component's cost. Industrial buyers often prefer established part numbers from tier-one manufacturers like Samsung because they provide long-term availability, consistent performance batches, and compatibility with established supply chains. When considering alternatives, engineers might compare this part against other ceramic capacitors from different manufacturers or different series from Samsung itself. However, the CL31C222JHHNFNE would be selected when the specific electrical characteristics, package dimensions, and voltage rating of this series match design requirements precisely. Substituting capacitors requires careful verification of capacitance value, voltage rating, operating temperature range, and package footprint to ensure circuit functionality and reliability. This component is suitable for use in environments ranging from consumer-grade applications to industrial equipment, provided the operating conditions fall within the specifications of the CL31 series. Its widespread adoption in production volumes makes it a practical choice for both prototype development and high-volume manufacturing scenarios.
