CL31X106MQHNNNE

The CL31X106MQHNNNE is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Samsung, a leading producer of passive electronic components. This part belongs to Samsung's CL series family of capacitors, which are widely used across consumer electronics, industrial equipment, telecommunications, and automotive applications. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this model function as energy storage and filtering components within electronic circuits. They are essential for decoupling, bypassing, timing circuits, and noise suppression in power supplies, signal processing stages, and RF applications. The compact form factor and reliable performance characteristics of Samsung's CL series make them popular choices for designers working under space constraints or requiring high component density on PCBs. The CL31 designation indicates this capacitor features a 1206 surface-mount package, one of the most commonly used sizes in modern electronics manufacturing. This standard package size allows for easy placement on automated assembly equipment and integration into both single and multi-layer printed circuit boards. The compact dimensions make it particularly suitable for space-limited applications such as mobile devices, compact industrial controllers, and miniaturized instrumentation. Samsung's CL series capacitors are manufactured using advanced ceramic dielectric materials and construction techniques that provide stable performance across a broad range of operating conditions. These capacitors are designed to meet international quality standards and are suitable for applications requiring reliability and consistent electrical characteristics over extended operational lifespans. Engineers typically specify this particular part number when they require a capacitor that combines the proven reliability of Samsung's CL series with the practical advantages of the 1206 package size. The specific electrical characteristics encoded in the part number make it suitable for particular circuit requirements, and selecting the exact part number ensures compatibility with circuit design calculations and board layout planning. The 1206 package is compatible with standard PCB assembly processes, including reflow soldering and wave soldering where applicable, which simplifies manufacturing and reduces production costs. The part's availability across multiple electronics distribution channels makes it a practical choice for both prototype development and high-volume production runs. For engineers designing circuits requiring multilayer ceramic capacitors, the CL31X106MQHNNNE represents a well-established component option from a manufacturer with extensive experience in passive component production and quality assurance.
