0805YA102JAT2A

The 0805YA102JAT2A is a surface-mount ceramic capacitor manufactured by AVX, presented in the compact 0805 package size. This component belongs to the general-purpose film and ceramic capacitor family, designed for use in mainstream industrial and commercial electronics applications where reliable capacitance storage and signal coupling is required. Ceramic capacitors in the 0805 package are among the most widely used passive components in modern circuit design. This particular part number indicates a capacitor intended for standard voltage applications typical of consumer and industrial electronics. The 0805 designation refers to the physical dimensions of the component—approximately 2.0mm by 1.25mm—making it suitable for high-density PCB layouts where space constraints are a consideration. This size represents a practical middle ground between smaller 0603 packages and larger 1206 packages, offering adequate capacitance values while maintaining compatibility with standard pick-and-place assembly equipment. AVX is a recognized manufacturer of ceramic and film capacitors, known for producing components that meet stringent reliability standards required in industrial settings. Capacitors from this manufacturer are commonly found in power supply circuits, decoupling applications, signal filtering, and AC coupling stages across various electronic equipment including instrumentation, automation controllers, and embedded systems. The specific designation structure of this part number suggests it is configured for general-purpose decoupling and filtering applications. Engineers typically specify 0805 ceramic capacitors like this one when they need to balance several practical constraints: the requirement for compact board real estate, the need for standard-lead-time components with established supply chains, and the desire to maintain cost-effectiveness in moderate-to-high-volume production runs. These capacitors are also preferred in applications where temperature stability and long-term reliability are important but where the most specialized high-performance alternatives are not economically justified. In circuit design, this component would commonly appear near integrated circuit power pins for high-frequency noise decoupling, in timing circuits, and as part of signal conditioning networks. The 0805 package format ensures compatibility with automated assembly processes and standard reflow soldering profiles used in modern manufacturing environments. For applications requiring verification of specific electrical characteristics including capacitance value, voltage rating, temperature coefficient, and tolerance specifications, consultation of the manufacturer's published documentation is recommended. This component is suitable for engineers designing reliable industrial and commercial electronics who require a proven, mainstream passive component solution.
