GRM319R61K225MA12D

The GRM319R61K225MA12D is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by Murata, one of the world's leading suppliers of passive electronic components. This capacitor is engineered for use in demanding industrial, consumer electronics, and telecommunications applications where reliable performance and compact form factor are essential. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this model are among the most widely used capacitors in modern electronics due to their small size, cost-effectiveness, and dependable performance across a broad range of operating conditions. The GRM319R61K225MA12D belongs to Murata's established MLCC portfolio, which is known for consistent quality and availability in high-volume manufacturing environments. The part number itself encodes key specifications: the case size is 1206 (12mm × 6mm in imperial notation), a standard surface-mount package that offers a good balance between component density and ease of handling in automated assembly processes. This size is commonly selected when space constraints exist but the application still requires moderate capacitance values. The capacitor is designed for use in printed circuit board assemblies where reliable soldering and long-term stability are non-negotiable. Murata's GRM series capacitors are widely specified in power supply circuits, signal filtering applications, decoupling networks, and coupling stages throughout industrial control systems, measurement equipment, automotive electronics, and communication infrastructure. Engineers select MLCCs for their ability to provide stable capacitance over temperature ranges, their low equivalent series resistance (ESR), and their resistance to mechanical shock and vibration—all critical factors in harsh industrial environments. The 1206 package size makes this capacitor suitable for applications that require efficient use of board real estate without resorting to smaller chip sizes that may present assembly or reliability challenges. Many design engineers prefer this intermediate size for filtering and decoupling applications because it remains cost-effective while offering sufficient capacitance and current-handling capability. When specifying this particular part number, engineers benefit from Murata's extensive manufacturing capability, proven reliability data, and the component's integration into established supply chains. The part's standardized packaging and wide industry acceptance mean it can often be readily integrated into existing designs or used as a direct replacement in redesigned circuits. For applications requiring high-reliability MLCCs with proven performance histories in industrial settings, components from Murata's GRM series represent a trusted solution.
