08053D684KAT2A

The AVX 08053D684KAT2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for general-purpose filtering and decoupling applications in electronic circuits. This component belongs to the 0805 package family, a widely used surface-mount form factor that balances compact board space requirements with practical handling and soldering characteristics for automated assembly processes. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are fundamental building blocks in modern electronics, serving critical roles in power supply filtering, signal coupling, noise suppression, and voltage stabilization across numerous industrial and consumer applications. The 0805 package size makes this capacitor particularly suitable for space-constrained designs where miniaturization is important but not at the extreme level required by smaller packages like 0603 or 0402. The "D" designation in this part number indicates this capacitor utilizes a dielectric formulation optimized for stable performance across typical operating temperature ranges common in industrial equipment. This makes it well-suited for applications where temperature compensation and predictable capacitance retention are important design considerations. The ceramic dielectric material provides good volumetric efficiency, allowing manufacturers to achieve reasonable capacitance values in a compact package. Engineers typically specify AVX MLCCs in this package for applications including switching power supply filtering, high-frequency circuit decoupling, EMI suppression, and general board-level noise management in industrial control systems, instrumentation, telecommunications equipment, and consumer electronics. The 0805 form factor offers a practical sweet spot for many applications—large enough to handle standard soldering processes and rework procedures, yet small enough to meet contemporary PCB density requirements. The AVX brand brings established reliability in the capacitor market, with consistent manufacturing processes and quality control measures that appeal to engineers designing systems requiring predictable component behavior. When selecting between alternative capacitors, designers might choose this specific part based on AVX's reputation for consistent dielectric performance, compatibility with existing supply chains, or integration with established bill-of-materials documentation in their design systems. The multilayer construction of ceramic capacitors in this family provides excellent high-frequency characteristics and low equivalent series resistance (ESR), making them effective for modern digital and mixed-signal circuit applications. For engineers involved in maintenance, repair, or system redesign work, the 0805 package remains one of the most commonly stocked capacitor sizes, simplifying inventory management and field-level component availability. This component represents a standard solution for general electronic filtering needs across the industrial and commercial sectors where reliability and consistent performance are expected design requirements.
