08053C122KAT2A

The AVX 08053C122KAT2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) in the 0805 surface-mount package format. This component belongs to the established family of general-purpose film and ceramic capacitors widely used across industrial electronics, consumer devices, and embedded systems where reliable energy storage and signal filtering are required. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this model function as passive components designed to store electrical charge and filter noise from power supply lines and signal paths. The 0805 package designation indicates a compact surface-mount footprint measuring approximately 2.0mm by 1.25mm, making it ideal for modern PCB designs where space efficiency is critical. This miniature form factor allows design engineers to achieve higher component density without sacrificing performance, particularly important in applications with size or weight constraints. The part number "122K" embedded in the designation suggests a capacitance value in the 1.2nF range, typical for high-frequency decoupling and RF circuit applications. Capacitors of this value are commonly specified for timing circuits, signal conditioning, and high-speed digital logic decoupling where small values prevent AC signal coupling while blocking DC components. This component is frequently encountered in telecommunications equipment, industrial control systems, automotive electronics, and data communications infrastructure. Engineers typically select MLCCs for applications requiring cost-effectiveness, reliability, and compact design. The ceramic dielectric material offers stable performance across operating temperatures and provides excellent frequency response characteristics suitable for both DC blocking and AC coupling scenarios. AVX is a recognized manufacturer of ceramic capacitor technology with a strong reputation for consistency and quality in the industrial and commercial segments. The 0805 package standard ensures compatibility with automated assembly processes and wide availability across the supply chain, reducing design risk and manufacturing complexity. Engineers might specify this exact part when designing circuits that demand a balance between miniaturization and performance, such as dense PCB layouts in industrial instrumentation, renewable energy inverters, or embedded computing systems. The established reliability history of AVX MLCCs in this package size makes it a practical choice for applications where component obsolescence risk must be minimized and long-term availability is essential.
