08053C222JAT2A

The AVX 08053C222JAT2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for general-purpose and industrial electronic applications. This component belongs to the 0805 package family, one of the most widely used surface-mount capacitor formats in modern electronics manufacturing. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are fundamental passive components found in virtually every electronic device and system. They serve critical functions including power supply filtering, signal coupling and decoupling, noise suppression, and energy storage in circuits. The 0805 package size—measuring 2.0mm by 1.25mm—represents an industry-standard form factor that balances component density with ease of handling and automated assembly. The "222J" designation in this part number indicates the capacitance value and voltage rating class typical of AVX's standard ceramic capacitor lines. Components in this range are commonly specified in consumer electronics, industrial control systems, telecommunications equipment, automotive electronics, and embedded computing applications. Engineers frequently encounter these capacitors in power distribution networks around microprocessors and microcontrollers, audio signal paths, RF filtering circuits, and general bypass applications. AVX is a well-established manufacturer of ceramic capacitors with a strong reputation for consistency and reliability across their product lines. The 0805 format from AVX is recognized for meeting strict quality standards and performing reliably across the extended temperature ranges typically required in industrial environments. One key reason engineers specify this exact part is the combination of package standardization and proven supply chain availability. The 0805 form factor is universally supported by PCB design tools, component placement equipment, and contract manufacturers worldwide. This standardization significantly reduces design complexity and manufacturing risk compared to less common package formats. Additionally, AVX's ceramic capacitor technology in this package category typically demonstrates stable performance across frequency ranges from DC through the hundreds of megahertz, making these components suitable for both low-frequency power applications and higher-frequency signal conditioning. The compact 0805 footprint allows designers to achieve high component density on modern circuit boards without sacrificing performance. For engineers evaluating this component, the combination of proven manufacturing quality, standard package format, and established design precedent makes it a reliable choice for applications requiring straightforward capacitive functionality without specialized performance requirements. The part's compatibility with standard manufacturing processes means reduced lead times and lower integration risk during board production.
