0.22 µF at 16 V — the 0201 SMPS filter choice
Taiyo Yuden EMK063BJ224MP-F is a 0.22 µF, 16 V X5R multilayer ceramic capacitor in the 0201 (0603 metric) surface-mount package — the footprint that fits under tight decoupling layouts between the switching node and output filter in small-form-factor power supplies. The ±20% tolerance (/ range) is typical for bulk capacitance in an SMPS switching network, where absolute value accuracy is less critical than low ESR and stable impedance across temperature. X5R temperature coefficient means the capacitance drifts within ±15% from the rated value over the -55 to +85 °C operating window — sufficient for most industrial and consumer power rails, but not the tight stability a precision reference would demand. For a filtering role downstream of a switching regulator, this drift sits within the ripple budget.
Packaging, fit, and pick-and-place reality
The 0.33 mm maximum thickness puts this part squarely in the ultra-thin MLCC category — it sits flush in low-profile assemblies where taller 0402 or 0201 parts with thicker dielectrics would not clear the shield. The 0.60 mm × 0.30 mm body lands on a 0201 pad geometry that demands a fine iron-head nozzle and accurate placement offset to avoid tombstoning on reflow. Tape & Reel packaging is standard for this footprint — confirm the reel diameter your mounter accepts (7-inch vs 13-inch) before committing a BOM line. The base product number EMK063B anchors the series family; alternate date codes and slight tolerance gradings within the same base PN can be cross-referenced at RFQ.
