GRM1887U1H112JA01D

The GRM1887U1H112JA01D 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, a widely recognized family of general-purpose MLCCs used across countless industrial, consumer, and automotive applications. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are fundamental building blocks in modern electronics, used to store and regulate electrical charge within circuits. The GRM1887U1H112JA01D is configured in a 1206 package size (metric 3216), a standard surface-mount form factor that offers a practical balance between component density and ease of assembly on printed circuit boards. This package size is popular in industrial control systems, power supplies, audio equipment, and automotive electronics where reliable performance and manufacturability are priorities. The part number structure reveals key specifications about this capacitor's design. The "1H" designation indicates this capacitor is rated for 50V DC, suitable for many industrial and commercial-grade applications. The "112J" code points to a 1100 pF (1.1 nF) capacitance value with standard tolerance. This relatively modest capacitance makes it well-suited for high-frequency filtering, decoupling, and AC coupling applications where small values are preferred. Murata's GRM series MLCCs are engineered to meet rigorous reliability standards and are commonly specified in designs requiring consistent performance over extended operating life. These capacitors function effectively across typical industrial temperature ranges and maintain stable electrical characteristics across frequency ranges important to signal integrity and power delivery networks. Engineers specify the GRM1887U1H112JA01D when they require a recognized, proven component with predictable behavior and readily available supply. The combination of established design heritage, proven manufacturing processes, and broad market acceptance makes this capacitor a low-risk choice for new designs and production ramps. The 1206 package size ensures compatibility with standard PCB manufacturing and assembly equipment, while the 50V rating and 1.1 nF value address common decoupling, filtering, and coupling needs in electronics operating at moderate voltage levels. This component is frequently found in industrial instrumentation, telecommunications equipment, embedded systems, and general-purpose electronics where reliability and cost-effectiveness matter. Designers often incorporate multiple GRM1887 capacitors at different voltage and capacitance ratings within the same board to create comprehensive filtering and decoupling networks.
