Murata Unveils World’s Highest Capacitance 0603-inch size MLCC

Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (TOKYO: 6981) (ISIN: JP3914400001) is expanding its range of multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) with the groundbreaking new GRM188C80E107M and GRM188R60E107M. Designed to cater to the continuous demands for miniaturization in servers, data centers, and IT applications, this solution stands out as the world’s first MLCC to provide a capacitance of 100μF in a 0603-inch (1608mm) size package.

In a wide array of consumer, IT, and industrial electronic devices, Murata’s MLCCs are utilized as a pivotal component that serves the purpose of temporarily storing and discharging electricity, dampening noise in signals, extracting signals at specific frequencies, as well as blocking direct current while permitting the flow of alternating current. With its compact packaging, 2.5V rated, low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and impedance, and X6S/X5R temperature classes, the new GRM188 is ideal for decoupling and smoothing circuits in demanding computer and network environments.

Within server and data centers, there is a continuous push to increase miniaturization and increase efficiency, while reducing material consumption. As performance and integration are advanced, the need for components to occupy less space and withstand higher temperatures becomes crucial. The impetus behind these industry advancements is further propelled by the demand for enhanced AI capabilities.

Leveraging Murata’s thin layer forming technology and a high-precision lamination process to meet the needs of the industry, the new GRM188 provides a wide operating temperature range and is the first 100μF MLCC capacitor available in 0603 packaging. It enables designers to further push system miniaturization by decreasing the number of capacitors used, allowing for a simultaneous reduction in circuit substrate area.

“The GRM188 represents yet another world-first achievement for Murata’s MLCC lineup, surpassing previous limitations and aligning perfectly with market demands,” said Hidetoshi Nakagawa, General Manager of Ceramic Capacitor Marketing at Murata. “In addition, this miniaturization not only improves the design of end applications and reduces the number of materials needed, but it also decreases electricity consumption during manufacturing, providing a dual benefit for sustainability.”

The 2.5V rated GRM188C80E107M products with a -55°C to 105°C temperature range and the 2.5V rated GRM188R60E107M products with a -55°C to 85°C temperature range are already in production with samples available for evaluation. Also, the new GRM188 with a rated voltage of 4.0V at -55°C to 85°C goes into mass production in 2025. Please contact us for details: contact form

SES and Air Astana Introduce Multi-orbit Inflight Connectivity on A321LR Fleet30.10.2026 18:35:00 CET | Press release

First aircraft is now delivering a new generation of onboard Wi-Fi experiences for business and leisure travelers SES was selected by Air Astana, the award-winning flag carrier of Kazakhstan, to introduce next-generation inflight connectivity services across its Airbus A321LR fleet. The first connected aircraft entered commercial service on 29 October 2026. Fleet-wide deployment will continue across the remaining A321LR fleet. Equipped with SES’s new electronically steered array (ESA) antenna, the aircraft delivers reliable connectivity over the SES multi-orbit network. SES will provide a fully managed inflight connectivity service across the fleet, enabling Air Astana passengers to enjoy a seamless online experience throughout their journey. “Airlines are increasingly looking for connectivity solutions that deliver a seamless passenger experience while providing the flexibility to evolve with changing customer expectations,” said Blane Boynton, Senior Vice President, Aviation at SES.

QuectelSues Telit, Alleging False Statements, Cybersquatting and Unfair Competition30.10.2026 16:41:00 CET | Press release

Quectel Wireless Solutions, a global end-to-end IoT solutions provider, today announced that it has filed legal action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida against Telit IoT Solutions Inc. The lawsuit seeks to bring an end to Telit’s campaign of false and misleading claims about Quectel and its products. Quectel alleges that, rather than competing on the strength of its products and technology, Telit engaged in a coordinated campaign to undermine Quectel’s reputation by exploiting geopolitical concerns surrounding Chinese technology companies. According to the complaint, Telit funded, promoted, and amplified false and misleading claims about Quectel’s products while positioning itself to customers as a safer “Western” alternative. The lawsuit further alleges that Telit engaged in cybersquatting involving Quectel’s U.S. domain name to advance its campaign. Quectel maintains that these alleged actions have caused substantial harm to its sales, customer

TestMu AI Launches Kane CLI Exploration, an AI Agent That Maps an Entire Web App From a Single URL and Turns It Into Tests30.10.2026 15:00:00 CET | Press release

The exploration agent walks every page and flow of a web app on its own, flags UX, security and accessibility issues, and builds the map Kane CLI uses to write, run and ship tests to CI, even when no requirements exist TestMu AI, the Full Stack Agentic AI Quality Engineering platform, announced Kane CLI Exploration, an autonomous agent that learns a web application before anyone writes a test. Given a single URL, it walks the entire app on its own, flags problems along the way and gives Kane CLI the context it needs to generate and run tests, even when no requirements, user stories or acceptance criteria exist. Every test plan starts from something written down, and many apps never had it. Legacy products lose their specs when the people who wrote them move on, and apps a coding agent built in a week often have no record of intended behavior beyond the prompt history. With nothing to test against, a testing agent ends up grading the app against itself. Starting from the URL a developer
