08055C822K4T2A

The AVX 08055C822K4T2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for general-purpose applications in industrial and commercial electronics. This component belongs to the 0805 metric package family, making it one of the most widely adopted surface-mount capacitor sizes in modern PCB design. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are essential passive components found in virtually every electronic device requiring energy storage, filtering, or signal coupling. They function by storing electrical charge across multiple alternating layers of ceramic dielectric material and metallic electrodes, providing reliable capacitance in a compact footprint. The 0805 package offers an optimal balance between physical size and electrical performance, making it suitable for space-constrained applications while remaining easy to handle and assemble with standard pick-and-place equipment. This particular capacitor is commonly specified in power supply circuits, decoupling networks, and high-frequency filtering applications across industrial equipment, telecommunications infrastructure, consumer electronics, and automotive systems. Engineers often select this component for bypass filtering near integrated circuit power pins, where it suppresses voltage transients and reduces noise propagation through power distribution networks. The compact 0805 size allows designers to place multiple capacitors in close proximity to ICs without consuming excessive board real estate. The capacitor designation "822K" embedded in the part number indicates its nominal capacitance value and tolerance class, typical of AVX's naming convention for ceramic capacitors. AVX MLCCs in this package are engineered to meet industry standards for reliability and consistency, with careful control of materials and manufacturing processes to ensure predictable performance across temperature ranges and voltage stress conditions. Engineers might choose this specific AVX part over alternatives based on several factors. AVX maintains strong quality control and traceability in their supply chain, which is important for industrial applications requiring documented component provenance. The 0805 package remains the de facto standard size for general-purpose decoupling and filtering, ensuring broad design tool support and assembly compatibility across contract manufacturers. Additionally, AVX's established distribution network and consistent availability make this part a practical choice for both prototype development and high-volume production runs. For applications requiring ceramic capacitor performance in a proven, mainstream package with excellent supply chain reliability, the AVX 08055C822K4T2A represents a dependable solution that addresses the core filtering and energy storage needs of modern electronic systems.
