What are the key specifications of the GRM21BR61E226ME44L?

Key specs include 22uF capacitance, ±20% tolerance, 25V DC rated voltage, X5R temperature characteristic, and an operating temperature range of -55°C to +85°C.

What should engineers review before using this capacitor?

Engineers should review the DC bias characteristics, as high-capacitance MLCCs like this one can lose significant effective capacitance when operating near their rated voltage.

What are the common applications for this MLCC?

This component is designed for general electronic equipment, typically used in power supply decoupling, filtering, and smoothing circuits.

What are the sourcing risks for this component?

As a standard Murata MLCC, it generally has high availability, but users should monitor supply chain status for high-volume production requirements.

What is the pinout of GRM21BR61E226ME44L?

Use the GRM21BR61E226ME44L datasheet for the official pinout diagram and pin names. In PartGenie, ask Datasheet AI about GRM21BR61E226ME44L pinout to locate pins, power rails, and interface signals before layout.
