08055C393KAQ2A

The AVX 08055C393KAQ2A is a multilayer ceramic chip capacitor (MLCC) belonging to AVX's established line of surface-mount passive components. This component uses the 0805 package form factor, a widely adopted industry standard that balances compact board footprint with practical handling and assembly characteristics. The "C" designation in the part number indicates a ceramic dielectric material, and the "393" segment encodes the capacitance value in the standard three-digit marking system used across the capacitor industry. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this one serve as fundamental building blocks in modern electronic circuit design. Their primary function is to store and release electrical energy, filtering noise, coupling and decoupling signals, and stabilizing voltage supplies across countless applications. The 0805 package size makes this component suitable for both high-density consumer electronics and industrial control systems where space efficiency matters but component accessibility remains necessary for manufacturing and service operations. This particular part is commonly specified in power supply circuits, signal conditioning stages, and high-frequency applications where ceramic capacitors excel. Engineers frequently choose components from this family for bypass and decoupling functions near integrated circuit power pins, where their low equivalent series resistance and inductance help suppress voltage transients and noise across a wide frequency range. The reliability and consistency of AVX's manufacturing process make these capacitors predictable choices for mission-critical applications in industrial automation, telecommunications infrastructure, and embedded systems. The 0805 form factor offers practical advantages in modern production environments. It accommodates standard pick-and-place assembly equipment, integrates well with automated solder reflow processes, and allows for straightforward hand rework when needed. Engineers select this size when full 0603 miniaturization isn't necessary but 1206 or larger packages would waste valuable PCB real estate. When specifying the 08055C393KAQ2A, engineers benefit from AVX's reputation for consistent quality across production batches, making this part suitable for applications requiring traceability and reliability documentation. The component's maturity in the market means established supply channels and long-term availability, important considerations for products with extended lifecycles or retrofit requirements. This capacitor represents a standard choice for engineers designing circuits that demand dependable passive component performance without requiring specialized high-temperature, high-voltage, or exotic dielectric properties. Its widespread use across industrial and commercial applications reflects the predictable, cost-effective performance characteristics that make ceramic chip capacitors indispensable in modern electronics design and manufacturing.
