08056G225ZAT2A

The AVX 08056G225ZAT2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for general-purpose and industrial electronic applications. This component belongs to the 0805 package family, a surface-mount form factor that represents a standard size in modern circuit board assembly. The 0805 package designation refers to its physical dimensions, making it compact yet practical for high-volume manufacturing and automated assembly processes. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this unit are fundamental passive components used across virtually every segment of modern electronics. They serve critical functions in power supply filtering, signal coupling and decoupling, noise suppression, and impedance matching throughout digital, analog, and mixed-signal circuits. Engineers specify MLCCs when they need reliable energy storage in a small footprint, particularly in applications where space constraints and cost efficiency matter. The AVX G225 series represents a standard ceramic dielectric composition commonly used in industrial, consumer, and commercial applications where moderate voltage ratings and stable performance across standard operating temperature ranges are required. Components in this series are suitable for use in power management circuits, signal integrity applications, RF filtering, and general board-level filtering where robustness and long-term reliability are priorities. Key reasons an engineer might select this specific part include AVX's established reputation for quality and consistency in ceramic capacitor manufacturing, the prevalence of 0805 components in existing design ecosystems, and the cost-effectiveness this package size offers in medium to high-volume production. The standardized nature of 0805 MLCCs means excellent availability from multiple distribution channels and compatibility with virtually all surface-mount assembly equipment used in manufacturing facilities worldwide. Industrial buyers frequently specify AVX capacitors because the manufacturer maintains strict process controls and offers comprehensive product documentation that supports compliance with standards common in automotive, telecommunications, medical device, and industrial control applications. The 0805 format also provides a useful middle ground between smaller packages like 0603 and larger formats, offering reasonable handling characteristics during assembly while maintaining space efficiency on printed circuit boards. When evaluating alternatives, engineers consider factors such as dielectric material performance over temperature, voltage derating characteristics, equivalent series resistance (ESR), and the specific resonance behavior needed for their circuit topology. The AVX G225 series offers predictable performance in these areas, supporting design confidence across production runs and environmental operating conditions typical of industrial equipment.
