NFM15PC915R0E3D

Overview

The Murata NFM15PC915R0E3D is a three-terminal feedthrough capacitor from the EMIFIL NFM15PC series, designed for high-performance noise suppression in compact electronics. It features a capacitance of 9.1 µF with a ±20% tolerance and a DC voltage rating of 2.5 VDC. The component utilizes a 0402 (1005 metric) surface-mount package measuring 1.0 mm x 0.5 mm x 0.5 mm. It supports a rated current of 2 A and exhibits a maximum DC resistance of 40 mOhms. Operating temperatures range from -55°C to +105°C.

Feature Summary

• Three-terminal feedthrough architecture provides low equivalent series inductance for effective high-frequency noise attenuation.
• High capacitance density within a standard 0402 footprint enables significant filtering capability in space-constrained designs.
• Robust construction supports high ripple current handling capabilities suitable for power line applications.

Applications

• Power supply input/output filtering
• Battery charger circuits
• Portable electronic devices
• Energy-efficient system noise suppression

Procurement Notes

Verify the suffix 'R' against official Murata documentation to confirm reel packaging specifications and ensure compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment. Confirm that the 2.5V DC rating aligns with the target circuit's operating voltage to prevent dielectric breakdown. Cross-reference the 0402 package dimensions with the PCB land pattern to ensure proper solder joint integrity during assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high capacitance is required in a minimal 0402 footprint for power rail decoupling. The 2A current rating makes it suitable for direct connection to power lines where lower-ESL performance is critical. Ensure the 2.5V voltage rating exceeds the maximum expected DC bias on the line to maintain stable capacitance values under operational conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Murata EMIFIL NFM15PC series of general-purpose low ESL capacitors. These components are engineered to replace traditional two-terminal capacitors in applications requiring superior high-frequency noise suppression. The series is characterized by its ability to handle high currents while maintaining a small physical profile, making it ideal for modern miniaturized electronics.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other NFM15PC series variants with similar capacitance and voltage ratings, such as NFM15PC915D0E3D, provided the packaging suffix matches the production requirements. Verify that any replacement maintains the same 0402 footprint and electrical characteristics to ensure board compatibility.
