A pin-compatible upgrade from Samsung with a higher 16V rating.
Find verified substitutes for the Samsung CL31A226MQHNNNE, a 22µF 6.3V 1206 ceramic capacitor. Explore pin-compatible upgrades with higher voltage ratings and tighter tolerances for improved design margin.
Candidates offer higher voltage/tighter tolerance, which is generally safe. Check ESR for sensitive circuits.
All recommended candidates use the same 1206 package, ensuring form and fit compatibility.
Multiple vendors offer compatible parts, reducing single-source dependency. Check lifecycle for some candidates.
Yes, several pin-compatible replacements exist. CL31A226MOCLNNC from Samsung is an excellent option with a higher 16V rating. Alternatives from CCTC and TAIYO YUDEN also offer upgraded performance.
Upgrade to a 22µF 1206 X5R capacitor with a voltage rating of 10V or higher and tolerance of ±20% or tighter (±10%).
The primary risk is minimal as these are passive components. Engineers should consider if secondary electrical characteristics like ESR or DC bias performance are critical for their specific application.
