08053C473JAT4A

# Product Description The 08053C473JAT4A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by AVX, one of the leading producers of passive electronic components for industrial and commercial applications. This component belongs to the 0805 package family, which represents one of the most widely used surface-mount capacitor sizes in modern electronics manufacturing. The 0805 form factor measures 2.0mm × 1.25mm, making it suitable for compact circuit board layouts while remaining large enough to handle moderate power levels and provide reliable soldering connections in automated assembly processes. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are fundamental building blocks in virtually every category of electronic equipment. They serve critical functions including power supply filtering, signal coupling and decoupling, EMI suppression, and frequency compensation in analog and digital circuits. The "473" designation in the part number indicates the capacitance value, following standard electronic component numbering conventions. As a general-purpose MLCC from AVX's established product line, this capacitor is engineered for stable performance across typical commercial and industrial operating conditions. Engineers and procurement professionals frequently specify AVX MLCCs in this package size for applications ranging from consumer electronics and telecommunications infrastructure to industrial control systems, automotive electronics, and medical device instrumentation. The 0805 package provides an optimal balance between component size, electrical performance, and manufacturing compatibility. These capacitors are particularly valued in applications requiring high component density on printed circuit boards, where their compact dimensions enable more efficient circuit design without sacrificing performance or reliability. The AVX brand carries significant weight in component selection decisions because the manufacturer maintains strict quality standards and consistent manufacturing processes across production batches. This consistency is important for engineers designing equipment that must meet regulatory certifications or operate reliably in demanding environments. The multilayer ceramic construction provides excellent frequency characteristics, low equivalent series resistance (ESR), and stable behavior across a wide operating temperature range compared to older capacitor technologies. For system designers working on cost-sensitive projects that still require reliable performance, MLCCs in the 0805 package represent a cost-effective solution that doesn't compromise on quality. The widespread adoption of this package size across the industry also means that design resources, application notes, and supplier options remain readily available, reducing engineering design risk and supporting long-term product sustainability. This component is ideally suited for procurement when designing new products or maintaining spare parts inventory for equipment that requires reliable, proven capacitor technology that has demonstrated performance in countless industrial applications.
