### Core Components of AI Servers: Comprehensive Analysis of MLCC Time: 2026-07-31 14:54:18 Content: In recent days, multiple Korean media and TrendForce reported that Samsung Electro-Mechanics has notified sales partners that from August 1, prices of MLCC products in some channels will increase by 30%. Taiyo Yuden plans to adjust prices from September 1 and said that even if customers accept the increase, delivery schedules cannot be fully guaranteed. Two leading manufacturers successively adjusting prices indicates that the supply of high-capacity and ultra-high-capacity MLCC for AI servers is tight, spreading to more specifications and channels. Today, we focus on interpreting MLCC capacitors. Overview of the MLCC Industry: What exactly is MLCC? MLCC, which stands for Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor, is one of the passive components most used in electronic equipment. Its structure is not complex: ceramic dielectric films with internal electrodes are repeatedly stacked, then pressed, cut, and sintered at high temperature, ultimately forming a millimeter- or even submillimeter-sized capacitor. MLCC mainly undertakes functions such as energy storage, filtering, decoupling, bypassing, and voltage stabilization. ...
