08053G474ZAT2A

The 08053G474ZAT2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by AVX, a well-established producer of passive electronic components. This part belongs to the 0805 package family, one of the most widely used surface-mount capacitor formats in modern electronics manufacturing. The 0805 designation refers to the physical dimensions of the component, making it suitable for compact PCB designs where space efficiency is critical. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this model are fundamental building blocks in virtually every electronic application, from consumer devices to industrial control systems. They serve multiple purposes including energy storage, filtering, decoupling, and AC coupling across power supply circuits, signal processing stages, and RF applications. The ceramic dielectric material provides excellent frequency response characteristics and stable performance across typical operating temperature ranges. The "G474" portion of this part number indicates specific electrical characteristics related to the capacitor's capacitance value and voltage rating. AVX's G-series capacitors are designed for general-purpose applications where reliability and consistent performance are required without specialized environmental demands. This makes them ideal for standard commercial and industrial electronics, including telecommunications equipment, automotive control modules, industrial automation systems, and consumer electronics. Engineers typically specify the 08053G474ZAT2A when designing circuits that require a compact, cost-effective capacitor solution with proven manufacturing consistency. The 0805 package strikes a balance between size and handling ease, making it suitable for both manual prototyping and high-volume automated assembly. AVX's manufacturing processes ensure tight tolerance control and low defect rates, which is particularly important in mission-critical applications where component failure could impact system reliability. The multilayer construction of this capacitor provides several advantages over single-layer alternatives, including higher capacitance density per unit volume and improved performance stability. The ceramic material used in this class of components offers good voltage linearity, meaning capacitance remains relatively stable across the specified operating voltage range, which is essential for precision filtering and timing applications. This part represents a standard, proven solution for engineers working on mainstream electronic designs. Designers often select MLCCs from established manufacturers like AVX for applications where performance history and manufacturing quality documentation are important factors in component selection. The 0805 format's prevalence in industry standards, combined with AVX's reputation for consistent quality, makes this part a reliable choice for both prototype development and production deployment across industrial and commercial applications.
