08053C474JAT2A

The AVX 08053C474JAT2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for general-purpose electronic applications across industrial and commercial equipment. This component belongs to the 0805 package family, one of the most widely used surface-mount capacitor formats in modern electronics, offering a practical balance between component size and handling ease in automated manufacturing environments. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are fundamental passive components used for filtering, decoupling, and signal coupling functions in power supplies, audio circuits, and signal processing applications. The 0805 package dimensions make this capacitor suitable for space-constrained designs where board real estate is at a premium, yet large enough to maintain reasonable handling characteristics during pick-and-place assembly. This size category is particularly common in consumer electronics, telecommunications equipment, industrial control systems, and automotive applications. AVX is recognized for producing reliable MLCC components with consistent electrical performance across commercial temperature ranges. The part designation suggests this capacitor falls within a standard general-purpose product line rather than specialized high-performance or specialty-use segments. Engineers typically select capacitors from this family when standard performance and cost-effectiveness are primary considerations, such as in power supply filtering where the capacitor must reliably smooth voltage ripple and provide charge storage without demanding exceptional characteristics. The multilayer ceramic construction provides several practical advantages. These capacitors offer stable capacitance values across reasonable operating conditions, compact form factor, and competitive cost when purchased in volume. They are also well-suited for automated assembly processes, making them economical choices for production environments. The ceramic dielectric material is inherently stable and offers good frequency response characteristics for most industrial applications. Engineers might specify this exact part when compatibility with existing designs is important, when AVX is a preferred or qualified supplier within their organization, or when this particular capacitance value meets their circuit requirements. The 0805 package remains the de facto standard in many design environments due to decades of established compatibility with manufacturing equipment and design practices. Designers working with legacy systems or those requiring proven component choices often default to mainstream packages and manufacturers. For applications requiring the specific capacitance value indicated by the part number suffix, availability through established distribution channels and established qualification history make this AVX component a straightforward procurement choice that reduces design risk and manufacturing complexity.
