CL31C222JHHNNNE

The CL31C222JHHNNNE is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Samsung, designed for general-purpose filtering, decoupling, and signal coupling applications across industrial and commercial electronics. This component belongs to Samsung's established MLCC product line, which serves as a foundational building block in countless electronic assemblies requiring compact, reliable capacitive storage and AC signal handling. Multilayer ceramic capacitors of this type are widely used in power supply circuits, where they provide local voltage filtering and transient noise suppression near active components. They are equally common in signal processing applications, including audio coupling stages, RF circuits, and general-purpose AC blocking where DC isolation is required. Industrial control systems, measurement instrumentation, consumer electronics, and embedded computing applications frequently incorporate capacitors from this family to ensure circuit stability and electromagnetic compatibility. The part number structure indicates this capacitor uses a 1206 package format, a standard surface-mount size favored by manufacturers for its balance of compact footprint and ease of automated assembly. This package size allows integration into densely populated circuit boards while remaining accessible for manual rework and repair when necessary. The 1206 form factor is compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment and soldering processes used throughout the electronics manufacturing industry. The "J" designation in the part number identifies the capacitor as belonging to a general-purpose performance class, typically suitable for applications where moderate precision and stability are acceptable. This positioning makes it an economical choice for non-critical filtering roles while maintaining adequate performance for the majority of industrial applications. Engineers often specify capacitors from this performance tier in bulk decoupling applications where cost efficiency is important and the precision requirements of specialized high-reliability or high-frequency circuits are not demanded. Samsung's ceramic capacitor offerings are recognized for consistent manufacturing quality and broad availability through established distribution channels, making them a practical choice for engineers seeking components with predictable lead times and reliable supply chain continuity. The widespread adoption of capacitors in this family across numerous OEM designs demonstrates their proven suitability for mainstream industrial and commercial electronics. When designing filtering networks, power distribution systems, or signal coupling stages, engineers often evaluate this part against alternative manufacturers and performance classes based on specific circuit requirements, PCB real estate constraints, voltage ratings, and capacitance values needed for their particular application.
