08053A470K4T2A

The AVX 08053A470K4T2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for general-purpose applications in industrial electronics and embedded systems. This component belongs to AVX's established line of surface-mount capacitors engineered to meet the reliability demands of manufacturing, instrumentation, and consumer electronic equipment. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are fundamental passive components used across virtually every electronic circuit board. They serve critical functions including power supply filtering, signal coupling and decoupling, noise suppression, and energy storage in both analog and digital applications. The 0805 package size—a standard in the industry—offers a practical balance between component density and ease of handling during assembly and rework operations. The "A" designation in this part number indicates this capacitor is specified with standard electrical characteristics appropriate for general industrial use. AVX manufactures these capacitors using established ceramic dielectric technology, producing components suitable for environments where consistent performance and long-term reliability are required. This part would typically be found on power distribution boards, microcontroller circuits, communication modules, and sensor conditioning circuits where stable capacitance and low ESR (equivalent series resistance) are beneficial. The 470K designation refers to the capacitance value, placing this component in a mid-range category useful for filtering applications and temporary energy storage. Engineers select capacitors at this value range for bypassing high-frequency noise on power rails, supporting transient load response in digital circuits, and coupling signals between circuit stages. The "4T2A" suffix denotes specific manufacturing parameters including voltage rating, tolerance class, and temperature characteristics established by AVX for this production line. Compared to alternative capacitor technologies, MLCCs offer several practical advantages: they occupy minimal board space, exhibit low inductance in surface-mount packages, provide stable performance across a broad temperature range typical of industrial environments, and integrate easily into automated assembly processes. The 0805 package size in particular remains widely used because it accommodates both precision applications and high-volume production without requiring specialized assembly equipment. Engineers specify the exact AVX 08053A470K4T2A part number when design requirements call for a proven, consistently manufactured component with established performance history. This level of specificity ensures supply chain reliability and design reproducibility across manufacturing batches. The part's integration into established product families makes it a dependable choice for replacement, redesign, and new product development across industrial, commercial, and embedded computing applications.
