Murata Manufacturing develops electronic components including capacitors, inductors and communication modules. Its materials and miniaturization technologies serve smartphones, vehicles, networks and industrial equipment.
History and development
Murata began in a small Kyoto factory in 1944 and was incorporated in 1950. It developed around ceramic materials and electronic components rather than branded finished electronics. Its history of materials and manufacturing technology underlies products such as capacitors used inside other companies' devices.
