CL21B225KOFNNNE is a Samsung 2.2uF 16V X7R 0805 MLCC. Alternatives need footprint, dielectric, temperature, and DC-bias review.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskmedium

X7T/X5R or 3.3uF changes need validation.

Package riskhigh

1206 and 0603 are not direct 0805 fits.

Firmware risklow

Passive MLCC has no firmware.

Sourcing riskmedium

PDF checks are still pending.

Can it be replaced directly?

No fully verified pin-compatible replacement is supported by the current evidence.

Best replacement path

Start with same-0805 candidates, then validate dielectric behavior and DC-bias capacitance.

Main risk

Dielectric, capacitance value, or footprint changes can alter effective capacitance in circuit.
