GRM155R61E474KA01D

The GRM155R61E474KA01D is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Murata, one of the world's leading suppliers of passive electronic components. This capacitor is designed for general-purpose filtering, decoupling, and bypass applications across a wide range of industrial and commercial electronic equipment. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this model are constructed from alternating layers of ceramic dielectric material and metal electrodes, allowing manufacturers to achieve substantial capacitance values in extremely compact packages. The GRM155R61E474KA01D uses a 0603 surface-mount package (1.6mm × 0.8mm), making it ideal for dense PCB layouts where space constraints are critical. This compact form factor is standard in modern electronics manufacturing, from consumer devices to industrial control systems and telecommunications equipment. This particular part belongs to Murata's GRM series, which represents their established line of reliable, high-volume ceramic capacitors. Components in this family are widely specified in power supply circuits, signal conditioning stages, and high-frequency applications where stable performance and consistency are essential. The 0603 package size offers an excellent balance between component density and ease of handling during automated assembly processes. Ceramic capacitors in the GRM series are commonly selected for decoupling power supply rails, suppressing high-frequency noise near integrated circuit pins, and AC coupling applications. Their low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and low equivalent series inductance (ESL) make them particularly effective at managing transient current demands in modern digital and mixed-signal circuits. These characteristics ensure stable voltage delivery to sensitive semiconductor devices and reduce electromagnetic interference in surrounding circuitry. Engineers typically specify Murata's GRM series capacitors when they need proven reliability combined with consistent performance across manufacturing batches. Murata maintains rigorous quality standards and extensive historical performance data on these components, which is valuable for applications requiring high reliability or regulatory compliance. The GRM155R61E474KA01D is particularly common in designs where the original equipment manufacturer has validated this exact part number through testing and field deployment. This capacitor is suitable for operating environments ranging from consumer-grade applications to industrial equipment. Its multilayer ceramic construction provides excellent stability and durability compared to other dielectric technologies. For engineers designing or maintaining equipment requiring proven, readily available passive components, the GRM155R61E474KA01D represents a standard solution that balances performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness across numerous application categories.
