Samsung Electro-Mechanics CL10B104KB8NNNC

Product FAQ

• 1. What Pricing and Stock Levels Does LCSC Offer for the CL10B104KB8NNNC (LCSC #C1591) for Volume Production?
  LCSC lists the CL10B104KB8NNNC with a minimum order of 100 pieces and standard full-reel packaging of 4,000 pieces. Tiered pricing is: 100+ pcs at $0.0028, 1,000+ at $0.0022, 4,000+ at $0.0019, 8,000+ at $0.0017, and 48,000+ at $0.0016 per piece. With 7,795,000 units in stock for immediate shipment, supply risk is negligible. At under $0.002 per unit in volume, the CL10B104KB8NNNC represents outstanding value for the 100nF bypass capacitor—one of the highest-usage passives in any BOM—making it the preferred choice for high-volume consumer electronics and industrial design projects.
• 2. What Assembly and Reflow Requirements Apply to the CL10B104KB8NNNC for a Standard Pb-Free SMT Production Line?
  The CL10B104KB8NNNC is RoHS compliant and designed for Pb-free reflow soldering with a peak temperature of 260°C for a maximum of 10 seconds. It is classified as a non-moisture-sensitive component and does not require baking before assembly. Standard packaging is 4,000 pieces per full reel, with a minimum order of 100 pieces. The 0603 ceramic body is susceptible to mechanical cracking from board flexure or aggressive depaneling. Maintain a controlled cooling ramp and avoid applying solder flux with aggressive organic acid residues that may attack the ceramic termination metallization over time.
• 3. Can the CL10B104KB8NNNC Be Used as a Direct Replacement for Other 100nF 50V X7R 0603 Ceramic Capacitors From Murata, TDK, or Yageo?
  Yes. The CL10B104KB8NNNC uses the standard 0603 (1608 Metric) SMD footprint and is a functional equivalent to Murata GRM188R71H104KA93, TDK C1608X7R1H104K, and Yageo CC0603KRX7R9BB104. All share the same 100nF, 50V, X7R, ±10% specification profile. Samsung Electro-Mechanics is a Tier-1 global supplier, ensuring consistent lot-to-lot quality. When substituting, verify that the package height and maximum rated voltage are compatible with your specific PCB design constraints, particularly in dense layouts with limited clearance above the board surface.
• 4. How Does the X7R Dielectric of the CL10B104KB8NNNC Compare to X5R in Terms of Temperature Stability and Application Suitability?
  The X7R designation indicates an operating range of -55°C to +125°C with capacitance change within ±15% across that range. This is superior to the X5R dielectric, which is rated only to +85°C. The CL10B104KB8NNNC is therefore suited for automotive-adjacent industrial applications where ambient temperatures exceed +85°C. Its ±10% tolerance (K-grade) is standard for bypass and decoupling use cases. X7R does exhibit voltage-dependent capacitance loss under DC bias, but at 100nF the effect is less pronounced than in larger-value capacitors, preserving effective capacitance across most operating conditions.
• 5. What Are the Core Electrical Specifications of the CL10B104KB8NNNC, and What Is Its Appropriate Application Voltage Range?
  The CL10B104KB8NNNC is a 100nF (0.1uF) ceramic capacitor rated at 50V with a X7R dielectric in a 0603 package, with ±10% tolerance. The 50V rating gives it an excellent safety margin for use on 3.3V, 5V, and 12V power rails—commonly encountered in microcontroller bypass, gate driver supply decoupling, and analog signal filtering. At 12V, the safety margin exceeds 4x, making it robust against transient spikes. The 100nF value is the industry-standard choice for high-frequency bypass capacitance at IC power pins, effectively reducing supply noise at frequencies from several MHz upward.
