08053D224MAT2A

The AVX 08053D224MAT2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for general-purpose filtering and decoupling applications in electronic equipment. This component belongs to the 0805 metric size family, representing a compact surface-mount package measuring 2.0 x 1.25 millimeters, making it suitable for high-density PCB layouts where space efficiency is critical. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are fundamental building blocks in modern electronics, serving essential roles in power distribution networks, signal coupling, noise filtering, and energy storage circuits. Engineers widely specify MLCCs across consumer electronics, industrial control systems, telecommunications equipment, automotive electronics, and medical devices. The 0805 package size strikes an effective balance between miniaturization and ease of assembly using standard surface-mount technology. The "224" designation in the part number indicates a nominal capacitance value in the upper microfarad range, making this capacitor well-suited for bulk energy storage and low-frequency filtering tasks. Ceramic capacitors in this class are valued for their high volumetric efficiency, allowing designers to achieve substantial capacitance in minimal board space compared to alternative dielectric technologies. AVX manufactures this component using proven multilayer ceramic technology that delivers reliable performance across typical industrial temperature ranges. The 0805 form factor is compatible with conventional pick-and-place assembly equipment and standard reflow soldering processes, reducing manufacturing complexity and cost compared to larger or more specialized packages. Engineers typically select this specific part when they need a cost-effective, compact capacitor for routine filtering and decoupling roles without requiring specialized characteristics like extreme temperature stability, ultra-high voltage ratings, or low equivalent series resistance (ESR) optimized for high-frequency switching circuits. The standardized nature of this part, combined with its widespread availability from multiple distributors, makes it an attractive choice for designs targeting high-volume production runs or requiring supply chain reliability. The 0805 MLCC category remains one of the most commonly used capacitor families in electronics manufacturing, with extensive design support, proven reliability data, and established manufacturing processes. Whether for noise suppression on power rails, AC coupling in signal paths, or simple bulk capacitance applications, components like the AVX 08053D224MAT2A provide predictable performance and integration simplicity that engineering teams depend on throughout product development and production.
