08055C271JAT2A

The AVX 08055C271JAT2A is a ceramic capacitor designed for general-purpose applications in electronic circuits and systems. As a surface-mount component in the 0805 package size, this capacitor is widely used in modern PCB assemblies where space efficiency and automated manufacturing are priorities. This capacitor belongs to AVX's established line of multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), which are among the most commonly specified passive components in industrial electronics, telecommunications equipment, consumer devices, and automotive systems. Ceramic capacitors are preferred in countless applications because they offer reliable performance, compact form factors, and cost-effectiveness compared to alternative capacitor technologies. The 0805 package format is a standard in the industry, measuring approximately 2.0mm by 1.25mm. This size strikes a practical balance between board density and ease of handling during manufacturing and repair. Engineers and procurement specialists recognize 0805 as a mature, well-established standard with excellent supplier availability and compatibility across assembly processes worldwide. AVX ceramic capacitors in this series are typically used for decoupling, filtering, timing circuits, and general energy storage applications. They appear frequently in power supply designs, signal conditioning circuits, and high-frequency applications where stable capacitance and low ESR (equivalent series resistance) characteristics are beneficial. The multilayer construction provides reliable electrical performance across the operating conditions found in most industrial and commercial environments. When selecting a specific capacitor part number, engineers consider several factors including capacitance value, voltage rating, tolerance, temperature stability characteristics, and physical package compatibility. The designation "271" in this part number indicates the capacitance value within AVX's standard coding scheme, while the suffix characters identify the specific dielectric material, voltage rating, and tolerance specifications of this particular variant. Engineers might specify the AVX 08055C271JAT2A over alternatives based on proven reliability in their specific application, established supplier relationships, compatibility with existing bill-of-materials standards, or performance characteristics suited to their circuit design requirements. For designs requiring consistent behavior across temperature ranges or specific voltage stress conditions, the particular characteristics of this AVX part may make it the preferred choice. This component is suitable for both prototype development and high-volume manufacturing environments, supporting design workflows from initial evaluation through full production runs. Its widespread use in industrial electronics reflects its proven performance and the confidence placed in AVX's manufacturing quality and consistency.
