Summary of 01005 INCH SIZE MULTILAYER CERAMIC CAPACITOR WITH A CAPACITANCE VALUE OF 1.0ΜF
Murata developed the world’s first 01005-inch (0.4×0.2 mm) multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) with 1.0 μF capacitance, addressing demand for smaller, higher-capacity components in smartphones and wearables. Mass production has begun for the 4 Vdc GRM022R60G105M, and 6.3 Vdc GRM022R60J105M production is planned for 2021, enabling greater miniaturization and higher circuit density in mobile devices.
Parts used in the 01005-inch 1.0μF MLCC:
- GRM022R60G105M (1.0 μF, 4 Vdc, 01005 size)
- GRM022R60J105M (1.0 μF, 6.3 Vdc, 01005 size)
Murata Manufacturing has developed the world’s first multilayer ceramic capacitor with a capacitance value of 1.0μF in the 01005-inch size (0.4×0.2mm), which is increasingly used in a wide range of mobile electronic devices including smartphones.
Mass production of the GRM022R60G105M with a rated voltage of 4Vdc has already started and mass production of GRM022R60J105M with a rated voltage of 6.3Vdc is scheduled to begin in 2021.
The spread of 5G smartphones and the increasing functionality and miniaturization of wearable devices is stoking the demand for further miniaturization and higher density of electronic circuitry. Among the applications, multilayer ceramic capacitors are essential components of many kinds of electronic devices and are widely used in such devices as smartphones and wearable devices.
Given that approximately 900 to 1,100 multilayer ceramic capacitors are installed in a single high-end smartphone, a considerable need exists for capacitors combining smaller size with larger capacity. In particular, since multilayer ceramic capacitors with a capacitance of 1.0 μF are widely used in various devices, expanding the adoption of these new products will contribute to the further miniaturization of electronic devices.
