CL32B222KIFNNNE

The CL32B222KIFNNNE is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Samsung, representing a reliable passive component widely used in electronic circuits across industrial, consumer, and telecommunications equipment. This component belongs to the capacitor family of passive electronic parts, functioning as an energy storage and filtering device in electrical circuits. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are essential building blocks in modern electronics, serving multiple critical functions including power supply filtering, signal coupling and decoupling, noise suppression, and timing circuit applications. Engineers specify ceramic capacitors in virtually every electronic device from simple circuits to complex industrial control systems because of their compact size, cost-effectiveness, and proven reliability over decades of industrial use. The CL32B222KIFNNNE utilizes a ceramic dielectric material composed of multiple stacked layers, which allows Samsung to achieve significant capacitance in a physically small package. The "CL32" designation indicates this capacitor uses Samsung's standard 1206 surface-mount package format, which measures approximately 3.2mm by 2.5mm. This compact footprint makes it ideal for space-constrained applications where engineers need to maximize circuit density on printed circuit boards. The "222" portion of the part number indicates the capacitance value within Samsung's standard naming convention. Capacitors of this type are commonly found in filtering circuits on power supply rails, where they smooth voltage ripple and provide local charge storage near active components. They also appear frequently in signal conditioning circuits, where they block DC while passing AC signals, and in impedance matching networks where precise capacitive values are required. An engineer might choose this specific Samsung part for several reasons. Samsung MLCCs are recognized for consistent manufacturing quality and reliable performance across commercial and industrial temperature ranges. The 1206 package size offers a practical balance between component density and ease of assembly and repair in manufacturing environments. Additionally, Samsung maintains broad availability of parts in this series, making them a practical choice for both prototype development and high-volume production runs. Industrial buyers often specify Samsung capacitors in applications including industrial automation equipment, power conversion systems, telecommunications infrastructure, automotive electronics, and test and measurement instruments. The reliability and standardization of parts like the CL32B222KIFNNNE make them particularly attractive for mission-critical applications where component failure could lead to costly downtime. For engineers evaluating alternatives, this part's proven track record, wide availability, and established supply chain make it a standard reference point when comparing ceramic capacitor options for new designs or component refresh cycles.
