08055A151K4T2A

The AVX 08055A151K4T2A is a thin-film chip capacitor designed for precision applications in industrial and commercial electronics. This surface-mount component belongs to the 0805 package family, a standard size widely adopted in modern PCB designs for its balance between compact footprint and ease of handling during automated assembly. Thin-film capacitors from AVX are engineered for applications requiring tight tolerance and stable performance across temperature ranges. This particular part is commonly specified in circuits where capacitance accuracy and low distortion are critical, such as signal conditioning, filtering, timing networks, and coupling applications. The thin-film construction provides superior frequency characteristics compared to standard ceramic capacitors, making it suitable for both DC and AC signal applications across audio, instrumentation, and industrial control systems. The 0805 package format is one of the most versatile in electronic component design. Its small size allows for high-density PCB layouts without sacrificing accessibility for rework or repair. The component integrates easily into automated pick-and-place manufacturing processes, reducing assembly costs and improving production throughput for volume manufacturers. Engineers favor this format when space constraints exist but reliability and performance cannot be compromised. AVX thin-film capacitors are recognized for consistent performance in demanding environments. They maintain stable electrical characteristics across operating conditions and show excellent reliability metrics, which is why they appear frequently in aerospace, medical device, test equipment, and industrial automation designs. The thin-film technology inherently provides lower ESR (equivalent series resistance) and lower ESL (equivalent series inductance) than some alternative technologies, benefiting high-frequency circuit performance. Engineers select this exact part number when they require a specific capacitance value in the 0805 form factor with the precision and stability characteristics of thin-film construction. The AVX manufacturing standard ensures repeatability from batch to batch, an important consideration in production environments where component consistency directly impacts circuit performance and field reliability. This component is typically used in analog signal processing stages, reference circuits, decoupling networks for precision analog ICs, and any application where capacitor dielectric absorption or aging would degrade circuit performance. The combination of package size, technology, and manufacturer reputation makes this part a practical choice for design engineers balancing performance requirements with cost and assembly efficiency in mid- to high-volume manufacturing scenarios.
