GRM0336T1E430GD01D

The GRM0336T1E430GD01D is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Murata, one of the world's leading suppliers of passive electronic components. This part belongs to Murata's GRM series, which represents a broad family of surface-mount ceramic capacitors designed for high-volume industrial and consumer electronics applications. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this unit are fundamental building blocks in modern electronic circuits, used to store electrical energy, filter signals, couple or decouple AC signals, and stabilize power supply voltages. The 0336 designation in the part number indicates a 1206-size package format (3.2mm × 1.6mm × 1.6mm), making it a commonly used mid-sized surface-mount component suitable for automated assembly on standard printed circuit boards. The "1E" notation in the part number refers to the capacitor's voltage rating and dielectric material class. Murata's GRM series capacitors with this designation are designed for general-purpose applications requiring stable performance across moderate temperature ranges. These capacitors are widely specified in power management circuits, filtering stages, timing circuits, and signal conditioning applications across industrial electronics, telecommunications equipment, automotive systems, and consumer devices. Engineers typically select this specific part number when they need a reliable, proven ceramic capacitor with balanced cost-to-performance characteristics. Murata's GRM series is recognized for consistent quality, predictable aging characteristics, and wide availability through global supply chains, making it a preferred choice for volume production environments. The surface-mount 1206 package format offers excellent mechanical reliability and space efficiency compared to through-hole alternatives, while remaining large enough for hand-soldering applications when necessary during prototyping or repair work. The multilayer construction of this component provides superior volumetric efficiency compared to single-layer alternatives, allowing manufacturers to achieve required capacitance values in compact form factors. This efficiency makes the GRM0336T1E430GD01D particularly attractive for modern compact device designs where board space is at a premium. For engineers evaluating capacitor options, this Murata component represents a mainstream choice backed by extensive application history, comprehensive technical documentation, and reliable supplier relationships. The GRM series' established position in the market means design teams can draw from abundant reference designs and application notes when incorporating this component into new products or revising existing designs.
