08055C222JAT2A

The AVX 08055C222JAT2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for general-purpose filtering and coupling applications in electronic equipment. This component belongs to the 0805 metric package family, representing one of the most widely used capacitor form factors in modern circuit design due to its compact size and reliable performance characteristics. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are fundamental passive components used across virtually all categories of industrial and consumer electronics. The 0805 package format offers an ideal balance between component density and ease of handling, making it suitable for both automated assembly and manual rework in production environments. These capacitors excel at high-frequency noise filtering, power supply decoupling, and signal coupling applications where space constraints are a primary concern. The "C222J" designation embedded in this part number indicates specific electrical characteristics within AVX's standard capacitor series. Capacitors in this class are typically specified for applications requiring moderate capacitance values with standard voltage ratings and temperature stability suitable for general industrial use. Engineers commonly select components from this family for bypass capacitor networks, EMI suppression, and voltage regulation circuits in power management applications. Key reasons an engineer might specify this exact part include its established track record in high-volume manufacturing, AVX's reputation for consistent quality in MLCC production, and the widespread availability of the 0805 package across multiple manufacturers and suppliers. The standardized package format ensures design flexibility, as alternative sources and substitutes are readily available if supply chain adjustments become necessary. Additionally, the proven performance history of this capacitor series in various industrial applications reduces design risk and accelerates time-to-market for new products. The 0805 package format is particularly well-suited for applications where circuit board space is limited, such as in control modules, power distribution boards, and signal conditioning circuits found throughout industrial automation equipment, telecommunications infrastructure, and embedded systems. The small footprint does not compromise reliability; these capacitors maintain stable performance across typical industrial operating environments when properly specified for voltage and temperature requirements. When designing new equipment or updating existing designs, selecting established components like this AVX capacitor helps ensure supply chain stability and manufacturing consistency. The part's compatibility with standard pick-and-place equipment and reflow soldering processes makes it a practical choice for volume production scenarios common in industrial electronics manufacturing.
