08053A821JAT2A

The AVX 08053A821JAT2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) in the 0805 surface-mount package, representing a standard component class widely used across industrial electronics, telecommunications equipment, consumer devices, and automotive applications. This capacitor belongs to AVX's established ceramic capacitor family and is designed for reliable performance in mainstream electronic circuit designs where moderate capacitance values and compact board real estate are priorities. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are fundamental passive components used for energy storage, noise filtering, signal coupling, and decoupling in power supply circuits. The 0805 package format—measuring 2.0mm × 1.25mm—offers an optimal balance between component size and handling practicality, making it suitable for high-volume manufacturing environments and automated assembly processes. This package size remains prevalent in industrial and commercial-grade electronics where space constraints exist but are not extreme. AVX ceramic capacitors in this category are known for stable performance across standard operating temperatures and moderate voltage ratings typical of logic-level and low-power analog circuits. They maintain capacitance stability across temperature ranges relevant to industrial and commercial applications, making them suitable for environments where thermal cycling occurs but extreme temperature extremes are not anticipated. The multilayer ceramic construction provides good volumetric efficiency, delivering useful capacitance in a very small footprint. Engineers typically specify this part number when they require a cost-effective, space-saving capacitor from a recognized manufacturer with consistent supply availability. The 0805 package strikes a practical middle ground—smaller than 1206 packages but larger than 0603 alternatives, offering advantages in both manual rework scenarios and automated production. AVX's manufacturing processes and quality standards make their components favorable for applications where component reliability and traceability matter, such as industrial control systems, networking hardware, and equipment requiring compliance certifications. The specific part designation (08053A821JAT2A) identifies this as a particular capacitance value within AVX's 0805 ceramic capacitor lineup. Designers select this exact part when the capacitance value matches their circuit requirements and when they prefer working with established, widely-stocked components from a manufacturer with strong distribution networks and technical support infrastructure. For precise electrical specifications including capacitance value, voltage rating, temperature coefficient, and tolerance information, reference the component datasheet or manufacturer documentation, as these details determine suitability for specific circuit applications.
