Best Alternatives to GRM155R61A104KA01J
The Murata GRM155R61A104KA01J is a 0.1µF 10V 0402 MLCC that is not recommended for new designs. Find and compare potential replacements, including pin-compatible and upgraded automotive-grade options.
AI replacement insight
Electrical riskmedium
Dielectric change (X5R to X7R) requires validation of temperature and DC bias characteristics.
Package risklow
All recommended candidates share the same 0402 package, ensuring form-fit compatibility.
Sourcing riskhigh
The target part is NRND, making long-term sourcing difficult. Prioritize active replacements.
Can it be replaced directly?
Direct replacement for GRM155R61A104KA01J should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
Best replacement path
Upgrade to an active, automotive-grade (GRT series) part with X7R dielectric and a higher voltage rating, like GRT155R71H104KE01D.
Main risk
The primary risk is the change in dielectric material from X5R to X7R, which impacts capacitance stability over temperature and DC bias.
