Potential pin-compatible substitute from a major brand with a higher voltage rating (10V).
Find and compare alternatives for the Samsung CL21B106KQQNNNE, a 10µF 6.3V X7R 0805 ceramic capacitor. This page provides potential substitutes and functional alternatives with detailed comparisons.
0805 is a standard package with consistent dimensions across vendors.
Using a part with an X5R dielectric instead of X7R can cause issues in applications operating above 85°C.
Yes, several manufacturers offer 10µF 10V/16V X7R 0805 capacitors that are strong candidates for pin-to-pin replacement, pending datasheet review.
Use a candidate with the same 0805 package, X7R dielectric, and a voltage rating of 6.3V or higher, such as parts from Taiyo Yuden or Walsin.
The main risk is using a part with a different dielectric like X5R, which has a narrower operating temperature range than the original X7R.
