0805PC123KAT1A

The 0805PC123KAT1A is a ceramic capacitor manufactured by AVX, one of the leading suppliers of passive components for industrial electronics. This component is packaged in the 0805 form factor, a widely used surface-mount package that measures 0.080 by 0.050 inches, making it suitable for compact PCB designs where space efficiency is critical. Ceramic capacitors in the 0805 package are fundamental building blocks in modern electronics, serving multiple roles in circuit design. They are commonly used for decoupling and bypassing applications, where they help filter out high-frequency noise from power supply rails and protect sensitive integrated circuits from voltage transients. Additionally, these capacitors function well in coupling applications, timing circuits, and general filtering stages across both analog and digital designs. The "123K" designation in this part number indicates the capacitance value and tolerance rating, which falls within standard ceramic capacitor specifications used across consumer, industrial, and automotive applications. AVX's 0805 ceramic capacitor line is engineered to meet the reliability demands of professional-grade electronics, including equipment used in telecommunications, medical devices, industrial automation, and power management systems. One key reason engineers specify AVX ceramic capacitors like the 0805PC123KAT1A is the manufacturer's reputation for consistent quality and long-term availability. AVX components are designed to meet or exceed industry standards including RoHS compliance, making them suitable for applications subject to environmental regulations. The 0805 package offers a practical balance between ease of handling during assembly, adequate voltage and current ratings for most applications, and minimal board space consumption. Ceramic capacitors from this series provide stable performance across a range of operating conditions and are available in multiple dielectric classes, allowing engineers to select the best fit for temperature stability, frequency response, or voltage requirements specific to their design. The small form factor does not compromise functionality, as modern manufacturing techniques allow these components to achieve reliable performance in demanding industrial environments. Whether you are designing power distribution networks, signal conditioning circuits, or general noise filtering stages, the 0805 ceramic capacitor remains an essential, cost-effective choice for engineers who need proven reliability and broad compatibility with standard PCB assembly processes. This part represents the kind of standardized component that forms the foundation of dependable industrial electronics.
