Japan electronics giant opens first Indian plant in Chennai
CHENNAI: Japanese electronics giant Murata Manufacturing has inaugurated its first Indian facility at the OneHub Chennai Industrial Park to package and ship multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) - a critical component in modern electronics. Industries Minister TRB Rajaa, who inaugurated the facility on Friday, called Murata's entry a 'vote of confidence' in the state's shift from assembly to high-value component manufacturing. 'Murata holds a 40% global share in MLCCs. Their chips power smartphones, industrial systems and even NASA's Mars helicopter. The fact that they have chosen Tamil Nadu for their India debut speaks volumes,' Rajaa said. The minister added that the state is building niche, precision manufacturing capabilities with Japanese partners, and that every investor is treated as a long-term partner, not just a stakeholder. At the Chennai plant, Murata will handle final packaging and shipment of chips, some measuring less than half a millimetre and containing up to 200 ceramic layers. The move follows Rajaa's recent visit to Kyoto. 'Chennai and its neighbouring districts today form one of the most integrated electronics manufacturing services clusters in Asia,' Rajaa said. 'We are not just assembling anymore - we are making the components that go inside.'

Murata Launches World's First High-Frequency Filter Using XBAR Technology for 5G, Wi-Fi 7, and Future 6G Networks
KYOTO, Japan, July 08, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (TOKYO: 6981) (ISIN: JP3914400001) has announced the mass production and commercial shipment of the world's first*1 high-frequency filter using XBAR technology*2. Developed by combining Murata's proprietary Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) filter expertise with XBAR technology from Murata's subsidiary Resonant Inc., it enables the extraction of desired signals while achieving both low insertion loss and high attenuation. These features are critical for the latest wireless technologies, including 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, Wi-Fi 7, and emerging 6G technologies. The demand for reliable high-frequency communications continues to grow in response to the widespread deployment of 5G and the future development of 6G. Simultaneously, wireless local-area network (WLAN) standards such as Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 are expanding into higher frequency domains to accommodate ultra-fast data rates. Filters used in these applications must address key challenges, such as preventing out-of-band interference, maximizing system battery performance, and meeting strict space limitations. Traditional approaches using Low Temperature Co-Fired Ceramic (LTCC) or conventional Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) filters often fall short in these performance areas. Murata's new XBAR-based filter addresses these limitations by achieving high attenuation performance while maintaining a wide bandwidth and low signal loss. The XBAR structure itself excites bulk acoustic waves using comb-shaped electrodes and a piezoelectric single-crystal thin film, enabling performance beyond the reach of conventional filter structures. It effectively removes high-frequency interference, even in bands above 3 GHz, allowing for clearer signal detection and better performance, contributing to high-speed, high-capacity, and high-quality wireless communication. Key performance parameters include a passband of 5150–7125 MHz, a typical insertion loss of 2.2 dB, and a typical return loss of 17 dB. Typical attenuation figures are 11 dB at 4800–5000 MHz, 28 dB at 3300–4800 MHz, 27 dB at 7737–8237 MHz, and 26 dB at 10300–14250 MHz. The new filter is targeted at devices with embedded wireless functionality, including smartphones, wearables, notebook PCs, and communication gateways, offering an optimal balance of performance and cost efficiency. Murata will continue to drive innovation in filter technologies to support the evolution of wireless communications, and expects this architecture to scale further, with future product generations capable of operating effectively in ultra-high frequency bands above 10GHz. Notes:*1 According to Murata research as of July 7, 2025.*2 XBAR technology: Murata's proprietary filter structure that excites bulk acoustic waves using comb-shaped electrodes and piezoelectric single-crystal thin films.
