South Korean electronic component company Samsung Electro-Mechanics has started production of a new compact high-capacitance multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC).

The CL32B226KLV6PN# is designed for use in constrained spaces such as 12 V EV battery systems and 48 V/12 V bidirectional DC-DC converter output stages.

The company used fine-particle ceramic and electrode materials, along with ultra-precision stacking techniques, to develop the MLCC. It maintains the same 1210 inch (3.2×2.5mm) size and high capacitance (22㎌) as its X7R product lineup, but increases the rated voltage from 16 V to 35 V.
