08053C102JAT2A

The AVX 08053C102JAT2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for high-reliability applications in industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics. This component belongs to the 0805 package family, one of the most widely used surface-mount capacitor formats in modern circuit design. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are fundamental passive components used to store and regulate electrical charge in circuits. They serve critical functions including power supply filtering, signal coupling and decoupling, noise suppression, and high-frequency applications. The 0805 package size (roughly 2.0mm x 1.25mm) offers an optimal balance between compact form factor and ease of assembly, making it a preferred choice for densely populated circuit boards where space is at a premium. The "C102" designation in the part number typically indicates the capacitance value and tolerance class of this component. AVX's multilayer ceramic capacitors in the 0805 package are commonly specified in applications requiring stable performance across operating temperature ranges. This series is particularly valued in environments where reliability and long-term stability are essential, such as automotive electronics, industrial control systems, power management circuits, and telecommunications equipment. One key reason engineers select specific AVX MLCC part numbers like this one relates to consistency in electrical behavior, temperature coefficient characteristics, and voltage rating across their intended application range. While specific applications may require particular dielectric materials and rated voltages, AVX's established manufacturing standards help ensure predictable performance in both prototyping and high-volume production runs. The 0805 form factor is also advantageous from a procurement and inventory perspective. It represents a mature, standardized package with broad availability from multiple manufacturers, reducing supply chain risk while maintaining design compatibility if component substitution becomes necessary due to availability constraints. This capacitor would typically be found on power distribution boards, mixed-signal PCBs, RF circuits, and any application requiring compact, reliable charge storage and filtering at the component level. Its small footprint does not compromise performance; rather, it enables modern miniaturization trends while meeting the durability and stability demands of professional-grade equipment. For applications involving safety-critical systems, high-temperature environments, or demanding reliability requirements, specifying established manufacturer part numbers like the AVX 08053C102JAT2A provides documented manufacturing traceability and quality assurance throughout the component's lifecycle.
