GRM0336T1E2R5CD01D

The GRM0336T1E2R5CD01D is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Murata, one of the world's leading producers of passive electronic components. This part belongs to Murata's General Purpose (GRM) series, which is designed for broad applications across consumer electronics, industrial equipment, automotive systems, and telecommunications infrastructure. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are fundamental passive components used in virtually every modern electronic device. They serve critical functions including power supply filtering, signal coupling and decoupling, noise suppression, and resonant circuit tuning. The compact form factor and reliability of MLCCs make them the preferred choice for high-volume manufacturing where space constraints and cost efficiency are important considerations. The part number structure indicates this capacitor uses a 0336 case size, which refers to Murata's proprietary metric packaging standard. This compact surface-mount package allows for dense component placement on printed circuit boards, making it suitable for applications where board space is at a premium. The "T1E" designation in the part number indicates this capacitor is rated for general industrial temperature ranges, allowing operation across extended temperature environments typical of industrial automation, power electronics, and outdoor applications. The "2R5" specification in the part number indicates the capacitance value. Murata's GRM series offers a wide range of capacitance values to support diverse circuit design requirements. These capacitors are available in multiple voltage ratings to accommodate different power supply levels, from low-voltage consumer electronics to higher-voltage industrial systems. Engineers typically specify Murata's GRM series multilayer ceramic capacitors when they require proven reliability, consistent performance across manufacturing batches, and readily available inventory. Murata's MLCCs undergo rigorous quality control and are qualified for demanding applications including automotive grade requirements. The series offers excellent frequency characteristics and low equivalent series resistance (ESR), making these capacitors suitable for power distribution networks, switching power supplies, and high-frequency signal conditioning circuits. The GRM0336T1E2R5CD01D would be selected in applications requiring a specific combination of capacitance value, voltage rating, and package size.
