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

Verdantis Rebrands as the AI Super-Agent for MRO, Sets Sights on AI-Native Enterprise Asset Management8.9.2026 16:06:00 CEST | Press release
Nine AI agents now run the MRO decision chain for Fortune 500 plants; new tagline “Anticipate. Resolve. Learn.” Verdantis, the AI company for spare parts and MRO inventory optimization in asset-intensive industries, today unveiled its new brand identity as the AI Super-agent for MRO and announced it is building toward a fully AI-native Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) platform. Verdantis’s super-agent orchestrates nine specialized AI agents across the decisions that decide plant uptime: spare parts, criticality, demand, reorder, and work order planning. These decisions set working capital, maintenance spend, and whether a critical asset runs and, in most plants, they are still made in spreadsheets and disconnected systems. The positioning is for the teams who own uptime - maintenance, reliability, and MRO supply chain leaders in oil and gas, mining, utilities, chemicals, and manufacturing. And it reflects an AI-first architecture: agents decide and act by default; people supervise, ov
HyperLight Welcomes VentureTech Alliance to Series C, Deepening TFLN Integration Across the Semiconductor Ecosystem8.9.2026 16:00:00 CEST | Press release
HyperLight Corporation ("HyperLight"), a leader in thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) photonics, today announced that VentureTech Alliance ("VTA") has joined its Series C financing round. VTA is a venture investment firm focused on the semiconductor industry, with a portfolio built across the semiconductor technology stack — including circuit design, foundry-adjacent process technology, EDA, advanced packaging, and photonics. VTA's participation extends the ecosystem alignment that defined the round, which brought together investors spanning silicon ICs, foundry manufacturing, electronics manufacturing services, networking, and global infrastructure capital. With VTA's addition, the syndicate now reaches further into the semiconductor manufacturing and design-enablement layers on which high-volume photonics production depends. "The transition to TFLN is not a component decision — it is an ecosystem decision," said Mian Zhang, CEO of HyperLight. "Getting TFLN into volume requires the proc
