Murata Manufacturing launches world’s smallest high-Q 100V MLCC for consumer and industrial equipment

Kyoto, Japan, February 20, 2024–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (Tokyo: 6981) (ISIN: JP3914400001), a leading manufacturer of passive components, has expanded its lineup of high-Q rated multilayer ceramic chip capacitors (MLCCs). ). The GJM022 series is designed for high frequency module applications such as those used in cellular communication infrastructure and extends the world’s smallest High-Q capacitors with a rated voltage of 100 V.

To facilitate high-speed 5G communications, designers must incorporate numerous high-frequency outputs along with the necessary power amplifiers. This increase in component count emphasizes the need for modularization of wireless communication circuits.

Murata Manufacturing developed the GJM022 series in response to the growing demand for small, high-performance capacitors. Murata leverages state-of-the-art thin-layer formation and high-precision lamination techniques to create advanced, miniaturized capacitors with no compromise in performance, delivering superior high-Q and low-loss performance required for modern applications. will demonstrate. .

Measuring 0.4 mm x LW 0.2 mm, the new GJM022 allows electronic engineers to overcome packaging limitations while maintaining optimal performance. High Temperature Guarantee further supports this effort by increasing design positioning flexibility. This enables reliable long-term operation even in close proximity to high-temperature components that radiate heat, such as power semiconductors.

The GJM022 is ideal for a variety of applications, including impedance matching in base station RF modules and DC disconnect applications. In such implementations, high Q-values ​​and low equivalent series resistance (ESR) contribute to higher power amplifier efficiency and lower power consumption.

“5G offers significant performance improvements over previous generations of cellular communications, but engineers need the support of high-quality passive components to take advantage of this exciting technology in their designs,” said Murata. General Manager Hidetoshi Nakagawa said. “With the GJM022/100V series, we have listened to the technical demands of the market and met them head-on.”
