08055C104MAT4A

The AVX 08055C104MAT4A is a surface-mount multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for use in modern electronic applications requiring compact, reliable energy storage and filtering. This component belongs to the 0805 package family, a widely adopted standard in industrial and commercial electronics manufacturing. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are fundamental passive components used across virtually all electronic systems. They serve critical functions including power supply filtering, signal coupling and decoupling, noise suppression, and timing circuit stabilization. The 0805 package format—measuring 2.0mm × 1.25mm—represents an optimal balance between small footprint requirements and practical manufacturability for through-hole and automated assembly processes. AVX is recognized in the electronics industry for producing capacitors that meet stringent reliability and performance standards. Components in this series are engineered for industrial-grade applications where consistent performance across temperature variations and operating conditions is essential. The MLCC technology employed in this part utilizes multiple layers of ceramic dielectric material with internal electrodes, enabling relatively high capacitance values in a compact surface-mount package. Engineers typically specify capacitors of this type in power distribution networks, where they work alongside larger bulk capacitors to manage high-frequency transients and maintain stable supply voltages to integrated circuits. In analog and digital circuit design, these components are indispensable for AC coupling applications, where they block DC while allowing AC signals to pass. They also serve critical roles in RF and microwave circuits, filtering applications, and sensor conditioning networks. The 08055C104MAT4A designation indicates this is part of AVX's established ceramic capacitor portfolio, manufactured to consistent quality standards suitable for OEM production environments. Selecting this specific part number ensures design compatibility with existing board layouts and assembly processes already qualified around the 0805 package format. Advantages of specifying a mainstream part like this include readily available technical documentation, consistent availability across multiple suppliers and manufacturing batches, established thermal and mechanical characteristics well-understood by design and manufacturing teams, and proven field reliability across diverse industrial applications. Engineers working on equipment redesigns, repair stock management, or new platform development often prefer certified standard parts with established supply chains over custom or specialty alternatives. This capacitor is suitable for applications ranging from telecommunications and industrial control systems to test and measurement equipment and embedded systems where compact components with predictable electrical behavior are required.
