08055C823K4T2A

The AVX 08055C823K4T2A is a multilayer ceramic chip capacitor designed for general-purpose filtering, coupling, and decoupling applications in electronic circuits. This component belongs to AVX's established 0805 (2012 metric) surface-mount package family, making it a standard choice for modern printed circuit board assemblies where space efficiency and automated manufacturing are required. Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) like this part are fundamental building blocks in contemporary electronics. They provide stable capacitance across frequency ranges and are commonly specified in power supply filtering networks, signal coupling stages, and high-frequency bypass applications. The 0805 package format offers a practical balance between compact size and ease of handling during pick-and-place assembly, making these capacitors suitable for both prototype development and high-volume production environments. The "C" designation within the part number indicates this is a multilayer ceramic capacitor type, while the alphanumeric suffix encodes the specific electrical characteristics, including capacitance value, voltage rating, and tolerance class. AVX's standard product lines are designed to meet the electrical performance requirements of industrial, telecommunications, automotive, and consumer electronics applications where reliability is essential. Engineers typically specify components from this family when designing circuits requiring stable, predictable capacitive performance across operating temperature ranges. The 0805 format allows circuit designers to achieve compact board layouts without sacrificing component accessibility for rework or repair. These capacitors are preferred in applications ranging from low-power signal conditioning to moderate-power distribution circuits, where alternatives like larger electrolytic capacitors would be impractical. The multilayer ceramic construction provides several inherent advantages over competing technologies. These capacitors exhibit low equivalent series resistance (ESR) relative to their size, making them effective for high-frequency filtering. They also demonstrate good reliability in temperature cycling and vibration environments typical of industrial and automotive use. The absence of liquid electrolyte eliminates concerns about leakage or electrolyte degradation over product lifetime. When selecting this specific part number, engineers benefit from AVX's established manufacturing processes and quality control standards. The component integrates easily into established supply chains and is compatible with standard reflow soldering processes used in modern electronics manufacturing. For circuit designers working within size and performance constraints, the 0805 ceramic capacitor represents a proven, cost-effective solution that has been validated across countless applications and manufacturing environments.
