CL32B156KOJVPNE

The CL32B156KOJVPNE is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Samsung, belonging to the CL series family of general-purpose capacitors widely used in electronics manufacturing and industrial applications. This component represents a standard solution for decoupling, filtering, and energy storage functions across consumer electronics, telecommunications equipment, industrial control systems, and automotive applications. MLCCs in the CL series are constructed using multiple layers of ceramic dielectric material with interleaved metal electrodes, enabling compact packaging with reliable performance across demanding operating conditions. The "32" designation in the part number indicates this capacitor uses the 1206 package format, a surface-mount configuration measuring 3.2mm by 1.6mm. This package size offers an optimal balance between component density and ease of handling during automated assembly processes, making it a preferred choice for modern PCB designs where board space is constrained but manufacturability must remain efficient. The "156K" coding within this part number indicates the capacitance value and voltage rating typical for this specific variant, placing it in the range commonly specified for general-purpose applications requiring stable performance without extreme specialized requirements. Samsung's CL series capacitors are engineered to provide predictable performance across commercial temperature ranges, making them suitable for most standard industrial and consumer electronics applications that don't require extended high-temperature or military-grade specifications. Engineers typically specify this exact part when designing circuits requiring reliable, cost-effective capacitance in a compact surface-mount format. The CL series from Samsung maintains consistent electrical characteristics and availability through established supply chains, reducing design risk and simplifying procurement compared to more exotic or specialized capacitor families. This part is particularly common in applications including power supply filtering stages, high-frequency signal coupling circuits, and general-purpose decoupling near integrated circuit power pins. The 1206 package format also provides advantages in manufacturing flexibility, as it remains compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment found in most electronics assembly facilities worldwide. When compared to alternative package sizes or capacitor types, this component offers reliability, cost efficiency, and proven field performance that make it a standard selection across various industrial segments. For specific electrical specifications, performance characteristics, and application guidance, engineers should consult Samsung's component documentation or contact technical support resources. This capacitor integrates readily into designs targeting commercial-grade reliability without specialized environmental or performance demands.
