08055E104MAT2A

The 08055E104MAT2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by AVX, a recognized supplier of passive electronic components. This part belongs to the 0805 metric package family, which is one of the most widely used surface-mount component sizes in modern electronics manufacturing. The 0805 footprint measures 2.0mm × 1.25mm, making it suitable for compact board designs while remaining practical for both automated assembly and hand-rework applications. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this model serve as essential energy storage and signal conditioning elements in virtually every category of electronic equipment. They are used for power supply filtering, decoupling, AC coupling, and bypassing applications across consumer, industrial, telecommunications, and automotive sectors. The compact 0805 package makes these capacitors particularly valuable in space-constrained designs where board real estate is at a premium. The "E" designation in this part number indicates it belongs to AVX's established commercial-grade capacitor family, designed for mainstream industrial and commercial applications rather than specialized military or high-reliability segments. This positioning makes it an economical choice for volume production while maintaining consistent performance across standard operating environments. The capacitor is constructed using multiple layers of ceramic dielectric material with interleaved metal electrodes, a design approach that provides stable performance across temperature ranges typical of indoor and controlled industrial environments. Engineers typically select this specific part number when they need a reliable, cost-effective capacitor solution for standard-performance applications. The 0805 package strikes an important balance: it is small enough for modern, dense printed circuit board layouts, yet large enough to handle reasonable power levels without excessive heating or reliability concerns. This makes it suitable for power management circuits, audio equipment, computing peripherals, industrial control boards, and general-purpose analog and digital electronics. The AVX brand reputation for consistent manufacturing quality and availability makes the 08055E104MAT2A a practical specification choice for engineers designing products intended for volume production. Specifying a mainstream, established part number reduces supply chain risk and simplifies procurement compared to selecting obscure or newly released alternatives. This part integrates seamlessly into standard assembly processes and requires no special handling or environmental controls beyond those standard in typical electronics manufacturing. The 0805 MLCC package remains one of the most standardized and universally recognized component formats in the industry, ensuring broad compatibility with manufacturing equipment, design tools, and supply channels worldwide.
