08053C104K4T2A

The 08053C104K4T2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by AVX, a leading producer of passive electronic components. This component represents a reliable solution for filtering, coupling, and energy storage applications across industrial, commercial, and consumer electronics. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are fundamental building blocks in modern circuit design, prized for their compact size, cost-effectiveness, and stable electrical performance. The 0805 package designation indicates this capacitor uses a surface-mount format measuring 0.080 inches by 0.050 inches, making it suitable for high-density PCB layouts where board space is at a premium. This industry-standard package size ensures compatibility with automated assembly equipment and streamlines manufacturing processes. AVX's MLCC products are engineered for demanding applications requiring consistent performance across temperature variations and frequency ranges. These capacitors typically feature ceramic dielectric materials that provide good stability and reliability in both DC and AC applications. The 104 designation in the part number refers to the capacitance value in the standard EIA coding system, indicating this capacitor falls within a range commonly used for decoupling, bypass, and timing circuit applications. Engineers frequently specify this exact part number for several key reasons. First, AVX's reputation for manufacturing consistency and quality control makes their MLCCs a preferred choice in applications where component reliability directly impacts system performance. Second, the 0805 package remains one of the most versatile surface-mount formats, balancing size constraints with handling ease during assembly. Third, components in this capacitance range are essential for power supply decoupling near integrated circuits, helping suppress noise and stabilize voltage rails in digital and analog circuits. This capacitor type finds widespread use in telecommunications equipment, industrial control systems, automotive electronics, power management circuits, and consumer devices requiring compact passive component solutions. Its multilayer construction enables reliable performance in applications experiencing thermal cycling or vibration stress. When selecting a capacitor for your design, component-level details matter significantly. The specific material composition, voltage rating, temperature coefficient, and ESR characteristics all influence suitability for particular applications. While this part number designates a specific AVX product with defined performance characteristics, engineers should consult detailed specifications to confirm compatibility with their circuit requirements, particularly regarding voltage rating, operating temperature range, and frequency response needs specific to their design.
