Murata’s Type 1SC-NTN module achieves Skylo U.S. certification for cellular and non-terrestrial network connectivity
Murata Unveils the World’s Smallest Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor with the First 006003-inch Size (0.16mm×0.08mm) Device
  Murata Manufacturing Co. Ltd has expanded its innovative range of multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) with yet another groundbreaking addition. Exemplifying Murata’s continual commitment for minimization, it has developed the world’s first 006003-inch size (0.16 mm x 0.08 mm) MLCC. This achievement represents a volume ratio approximately 75% lower than the existing smallest product, the 008004-inch size (0.25×0.125mm).  In recent years, as electronic devices become more sophisticated and compact, the number of electronic components installed has increased, while simultaneously the space required for installation has been reduced. As electronic devices continue to advance in intelligence, there has been a corresponding increase in the incorporation of MLCCs across all types of electronic devices, with the latest smartphones utilizing up to 1000 units. Against this background, there is a growing need for ultra-compact products that enable high-density component mounting with limited mounting space.  Since its inception in 1944, Murata has been committed to the exploration and advancement of ceramic capacitors, nurturing its unparalleled understanding of raw materials, manufacturing processes, and production technologies. In 2014, Murata successfully brought to market the world’s first 008004-inch size (0.25×0.125mm) multilayer ceramic capacitors, which have experienced growing utilization in smartphone modules and wearable devices. The creation of this MLCC is the outcome of years of focused R&D in elemental technologies, resulting in a device that measures just 0.16mm x 0.08mm x 0.08mm (L/W/T).  “Under our slogan 'Innovator in Electronics' we will continue to lead the electronics industry by providing innovative products and developing technologies,” said Hidetoshi Nakagawa, General Manager of Ceramic Capacitor Marketing at Murata Manufacturing Co Ltd. He continued, “This product is another world’s first in a long line of Murata’s market defining MLCCs and will significantly contribute to the future miniaturization and improvement of our customer’s electronic devices.”  This revolutionary product will be showcased at Murata’s booth (6H104) during the CEATEC JAPAN 2024 event, scheduled to take place at Makuhari Messe in Chiba Prefecture on October 15, 2024.

Murata:Mass production begins for 0603M size copper electrode NTC thermistors, ideal for automotive applications
  Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (hereinafter “Murata”) has developed 0603M size (0.6 x 0.3 x 0.3 mm) copper electrode NTC thermistors “NCU03XH103F6SRL” and “NCU03XH103F60RL” (hereinafter “this product”) for markets such as the automotive market where there is a demand for high reliability electronic components. This product is an expansion of the NCU series size lineup. Mass production has already begun, and samples can also be provided.  As advances are being made towards automated driving and IoT integration in the automotive market, circuit boards are being made with an increasingly larger number of electronic components, and in turn, higher component densities. With the increasing sophistication of ADAS*1/telematics technologies*2, there are higher loads on electronic components, amplifying the issue of component overheating. As a result, there is a heightened demand for overheating detection and temperature monitoring technologies.  We have taken advantage of Murata’s years of processing technology development experience to create a 0603M size (0.6 x 0.3 x 0.3 mm) product that can be used for high reliability applications.

Murata:Radisol Redefines Antenna Interference Countermeasures for Smartphones and Wearables
  Murata Manufacturing Co. Ltd announces the launch of Radisol – an innovative product designed to suppress interference between nearby antennas with low insertion loss, improving isolation and antenna radiation efficiency. This world-first solution is specifically engineered to meet the demands of compact modern devices like smartphones and wearables, offering benefits such as reduced power consumption, miniaturized construction, and enhanced communication quality. In addition, Radisol has been adopted by Motorola Mobility LLC (Headquarters: Libertyville, Illinois, USA, President: Sergio Buniac), in the new Edge series of smartphones scheduled to be released in August 2024. Motorola has realized a method of improving the characteristics of Wi-Fi® antennas by using Radisol.  As the demand for smaller smartphones and wearable devices grows, the number of antennas is also increasing to accommodate the expanding range of communication methods and bands. Additionally, MIMO technology to improve communication quality and speed is encouraging an increase in the number of antennas, while new designs such as foldable smartphones are encouraging antenna crowding. This has posed new difficulties, specifically the implications on antenna isolation and the decline in antenna effectiveness, as the interference of nearby antennas leads to a decrease in radiation efficiency.  Although discrete filters are a common solution for improving antenna isolation, they are not suitable when communication bands are closely situated, as insertion loss can impair antenna performance and occupy valuable board space. To address these challenges, Murata has created Radisol, a low-loss filter for antenna area that uses Murata’s unique ceramic multilayer technology and RF circuit design technology.  Antenna engineers usually construct a filter circuit using discrete L and C chip components to implement effective countermeasures. Instead, Radisol is just a single 0603-sized component that resolves the persisting challenges of antenna performance and packaging constraints. It effectively suppresses antenna interference, without significantly impacting the passband, and results in enhanced radiation efficiency and reduced power consumption.  Each Radisol component operates as a dedicated filter circuit designed specifically to mitigate the antenna interference associated with a specific communication band. The compact component integrates one capacitor and two inductors, providing band-stop filter characteristics within a single chip. Radisol features a unique design that utilizes the generation of lossless mutual inductance by two magnetically coupled coils. This setup forms a band-stop circuit with no notable insertion loss in the communication band. This specialized approach to antenna isolation enables Radisol to offer enhanced performance, with low insertion loss and high efficiency and system integration.  Included in the Radisol family are variants designed to effectively address the needs of common bands, including 2G & 5G Wi-Fi® as well as GPS signals. This eliminates the necessity of designing discrete filter circuits, simplifying the implementation of countermeasures. Murata will continue to expand upon the initial product lineup to further meet market demands and drive further innovation in antenna technology.  “By using Radisol engineers can address the challenges of modern communication devices without compromising signal integrity and radiation efficiency,” said Satoru Muto, General Manager of New Business Incubation Department at Murata. “By utilizing Murata's cutting-edge technology, this solution takes integration to a whole new level, eliminating the need for complex discrete filter circuits and saving valuable space.”  Radisol samples are available for evaluation and mass production has already begun in June 2024.
