Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has developed a new low loss multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) that supports a rated voltage of 100V and has an ultra small size of 0402M (0.4 x 0.2mm). It is mainly used for wireless communication modules and will begin mass production in February 2024.
Commercialization of MLCC using nickel internal electrodes. Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. commercialized multi-layer ceramic capacitors (Ni MLCC) using nickel internal electrodes, making contributions to industrial development. As a result, it was awarded the International Society for Electrical and Electronics (IEEE), The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. awarded the IEEE Milestone Award.
With the changes in the healthcare market environment, personal healthcare devices used for daily health management have also been affected. These products are smaller in size and support cloud connectivity. Murata's product features: By utilizing compact universal components (capacitors, inductors, etc.), we manufacture compact products with higher design freedom. Utilize Bluetooth Intelligent modules and wireless communication modules that support near-field communication (NFC) make it easier to manufacture daily health monitoring products with network connectivity capabilities.
Dedicated to the resource recycling and reuse of waste plastics. Murata Production Co., Ltd. has decided to invest in the joint venture company R PLUS JAPAN, which is committed to the recycling and reuse of waste plastics in order to achieve sustainable resource utilization.
Development process certification of automotive functional safety standards. Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. obtained the development process certification of the automotive functional safety standard "ISO 26262" issued by the German third-party certification body SGS-T Ü V Saar GmbH on February 13, 2024, and was awarded the certificate on May 21.
Of course, there is a huge business opportunity in the blood glucose meter market, and component manufacturers have also recognized it. Therefore, they have been following the development of technology and the market, making meticulous product layouts to better meet the needs of developers. In this field, Murata Manufacturing has a very comprehensive technical preparation, relying on a rich product portfolio to create a comprehensive solution around blood glucose meters (including CGM products).
Filter capacitors play a very important role in switching power supplies, and how to correctly select filter capacitors, especially the selection of output filter capacitors, is a concern for every engineering and technical personnel. On the power filtering circuit, we can see various capacitors with different capacitance values, such as 100uF, 10uF, 100nF, 10nF, etc. How are these parameters determined? In the future, don't see capacitors with 0.1uF capacitance placed in everything. In some high-speed systems, these 0.1uF capacitors simply won't work.
In the early days, we all built our own power supply circuits, and now there are many integrated chips. DC-DC circuits are also ubiquitous in electronic products. This article shares some basic knowledge of DCDC circuit design with everyone. Concept and characteristics: DC-DC refers to a direct current to direct current power supply. It is a device that converts electrical energy from one voltage value into electrical energy from another voltage value in a DC circuit.
The Murata Production Institute of Corporation has successfully developed a multi-layer ceramic capacitor "GRM188D72A105KE01" for 48V lines in base stations, servers, and data centers, and has been put into mass production. This product is available at 1608M (1.6 × 0.8mm) size and rated voltage of 100V can achieve 1 μ F's super large electrostatic capacity (according to Murata survey data as of November 20, 2023). GRM188D72A105KE01 (0603 1uF 100V X7R 10%) This model uses high-temperature resistant material X7T, with a temperature environment of -55 ℃~125 ℃, and a durability testing environment of (125 ℃ rated voltage * 150% 1000 hours)
As is well known, capacitors play a role in providing local energy storage and stabilizing power supply voltage in electronic circuits. Decoupling capacitors are a special type of capacitor that can isolate or decouple two circuits. In other words, such capacitors can decouple AC signals from DC signals, and vice versa. Decoupling capacitors act like buffers, providing clean and stable power to components, thereby minimizing the risk of faults, noise coupling, and signal integrity issues.
