08055A150FAT2A

The AVX 08055A150FAT2A is a thin-film capacitor designed for precision applications requiring stable capacitance values and low dissipation characteristics. This component belongs to AVX's established line of small form factor capacitors commonly used in circuits demanding high reliability and predictable electrical behavior across operating conditions. Thin-film capacitors like this part are constructed using deposited film technology, which allows for tighter capacitance tolerances and superior frequency response compared to standard ceramic alternatives. The 0805 package size (approximately 2.0mm x 1.25mm) makes this component suitable for space-constrained circuit board layouts while maintaining accessibility for standard manufacturing processes including reflow soldering and automated assembly. This capacitor is typically specified in precision analog circuits, signal conditioning applications, coupling and decoupling networks, and filtering stages where component stability is critical. Engineers often select thin-film capacitors for RF applications, measurement instrumentation, audio equipment, and industrial control systems where the predictability of capacitive behavior directly impacts circuit performance. The small package size combined with the film construction makes this part valuable in modern compact electronics where board density is high but performance cannot be compromised. The 08055A150FAT2A designation indicates this is part of AVX's established product family with proven manufacturing processes and consistent quality control. Thin-film capacitor technology provides several advantages over alternatives: superior temperature stability, excellent frequency characteristics, minimal capacitance drift over time, and low equivalent series resistance (ESR). These properties make thin-film capacitors preferred in timing circuits, compensation networks, and precision measurement applications where long-term reliability and predictable performance are essential requirements. Engineers specify this exact part number when they need the specific capacitance value in a proven thin-film package that meets their circuit's tolerance requirements and environmental operating conditions. The AVX brand carries established reputation in industrial and military applications where component reliability directly affects system performance and operational safety. This component integrates well into both prototype and production environments, with the 0805 case size compatible with standard PCB design tools, assembly equipment, and test fixtures used across manufacturing sectors. For designers working on medical devices, aerospace equipment, telecommunications infrastructure, or industrial automation systems, the combination of small size, stable performance characteristics, and established supply chain makes this part a practical specification choice.
