GCM188R71H224MA64D Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The GCM188R71H224MA64D is a 0.22 µF ceramic capacitor manufactured by Murata Electronics, rated for 50V operation with X7R temperature coefficient characteristics. This multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) is designed for surface mount applications in the 0603 (1608 Metric) package format. The part maintains Active product status and carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, making it suitable for automotive-grade circuit implementations. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary manufacturer part becomes unavailable or when supply chain optimization is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the GCM188R71H224MA64D are identified based on strict parametric equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitution logic requires exact matching of the following parameters:

• Capacitance value: 0.22 µF
• Capacitance tolerance: ±20%
• Voltage rating: 50V
• Temperature coefficient: X7R
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Package format: 0603 (1608 Metric)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount, MLCC
• Automotive qualification: AEC-Q200
• Compliance standards: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

Parts meeting all these criteria are classified as parametric equivalents and direct substitutes. No deviations from specified parameters are permitted for substitution classification.
