CL32B226MOJNNN

The CL32B226MOJNNN is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Samsung, designed for general-purpose energy storage and filtering applications in electronic circuits. This component belongs to the CL series family, which represents Samsung's established line of high-reliability ceramic capacitors widely used across industrial, consumer, and automotive electronics. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this model function as fundamental passive components in power supply circuits, signal coupling and decoupling stages, and noise filtering applications. Engineers specify MLCCs when they need compact, cost-effective capacitive solutions with stable performance across temperature ranges and operating conditions. The ceramic dielectric material provides excellent volumetric efficiency, making these capacitors ideal for space-constrained designs where board real estate is at a premium. The designation "CL32B" indicates this capacitor uses a 1206 surface-mount package format, the industry-standard rectangular chip configuration measuring approximately 3.2 by 1.6 millimeters. This size represents an optimal middle ground for modern electronics—large enough to accommodate reasonable capacitance values while remaining compact enough for dense component placement on printed circuit boards. The surface-mount design allows for automated assembly using standard pick-and-place equipment, reducing manufacturing costs and improving production throughput. The "226" portion of the part number encodes the capacitance value in picofarad units using industry-standard EIA coding. Samsung's CL series capacitors are available across a wide range of voltage ratings and capacitance values, allowing engineers to select the exact specification required for their application without over-specifying components or creating supply chain complexity. This family of capacitors finds extensive application in switching power supplies, DC-DC converters, audio equipment, telecommunications infrastructure, industrial control systems, and consumer electronics. They serve critical roles in input filtering, output smoothing, high-frequency bypass applications, and coupling networks. Samsung's CL series maintains consistent performance characteristics, supporting the reliability requirements of industrial and mission-critical applications where component failure could impact system availability or safety. Engineers often specify Samsung MLCCs based on several factors: proven long-term reliability track record, consistent manufacturing quality, broad availability through distribution channels, and excellent performance-to-cost ratio. The CL32B226MOJNNN specifically represents a standard capacitor configuration that balances practical performance requirements with economical sourcing, making it suitable for both prototype development and high-volume production environments.
