08055A200JAT4A

The AVX 08055A200JAT4A is a thin-film chip capacitor designed for precision applications requiring stable capacitance performance across temperature ranges and operating conditions. This component belongs to AVX's established line of surface-mount capacitors in the 0805 package format, making it suitable for modern printed circuit board assembly processes using standard pick-and-place equipment. Thin-film capacitors from AVX are constructed using advanced dielectric materials and electrode designs that deliver superior frequency response characteristics and low parasitic inductance compared to conventional ceramic alternatives. These components are particularly valued in applications where signal integrity, filtering performance, and long-term reliability are critical requirements. The thin-film technology provides predictable capacitive behavior, minimal dielectric absorption, and excellent stability over time, which distinguishes this part from standard multilayer ceramic capacitors. The 0805 form factor is one of the most widely adopted package sizes in modern electronics manufacturing. This standardized dimension allows engineers to achieve compact board layouts while maintaining accessibility for rework and troubleshooting. The small footprint is advantageous in space-constrained applications while the established supply chain and compatibility with automated assembly equipment reduce production costs and lead times. Engineers typically specify this capacitor in analog signal conditioning circuits, precision measurement instrumentation, and high-frequency filtering applications. Common use cases include decoupling in precision amplifier designs, AC coupling in audio and instrumentation systems, and frequency compensation networks in control electronics. The stability characteristics make this component well-suited for temperature-sensitive measurement circuits and applications where capacitance drift could compromise system accuracy. Industries that routinely specify thin-film chip capacitors in this package include telecommunications equipment manufacturers, medical device producers, industrial control system integrators, and aerospace electronics suppliers. In these sectors, component reliability and predictable performance over extended operating life are non-negotiable requirements. When selecting between available capacitor technologies, engineers choosing the AVX 08055A200JAT4A are prioritizing the performance advantages of thin-film construction. While these capacitors may carry a higher per-unit cost than standard ceramic options, the improved frequency response, temperature stability, and minimal dielectric loss justify specification in demanding applications. This part represents a middle ground between cost-optimized commodity capacitors and specialized high-reliability military-grade components, making it suitable for professional-grade industrial and commercial equipment where performance consistency matters.
