0805YA180JAT2A

The 0805YA180JAT2A is a ceramic chip capacitor manufactured by AVX in the standard 0805 surface-mount package size. This component is designed for general-purpose energy storage, filtering, and signal coupling applications across a wide range of electronic equipment and industrial control systems. Ceramic chip capacitors in the 0805 form factor are among the most widely used passive components in modern electronics. They offer a compact footprint that allows engineers to achieve high component density on PCBs while maintaining reliable performance in applications ranging from consumer electronics to industrial instrumentation. The 0805 package measures approximately 2.0 x 1.25 millimeters, making it suitable for both automatic pick-and-place assembly and hand-rework in manufacturing environments. AVX's ceramic capacitors are known for consistent performance and availability across industrial supply chains. The Y designation in this part number indicates this capacitor belongs to AVX's Y series, which comprises general-purpose multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) intended for broad application use. These capacitors are frequently specified in power supply circuits, decoupling networks, filtering stages, and AC coupling applications where reliable capacitance and stable performance across operating conditions are essential. Ceramic capacitors in this family typically exhibit good frequency response characteristics and low equivalent series resistance (ESR), making them suitable for both DC and AC signal applications. Their compact size and relatively low cost compared to alternative dielectric materials make them the default choice for volume production across industries including telecommunications, automotive electronics, industrial automation, and consumer devices. Engineers commonly specify 0805 ceramic capacitors from reputable manufacturers like AVX when designing circuits requiring predictable performance without the size constraints or cost premiums associated with larger package options or specialized dielectric materials. The 0805 package also simplifies supply chain management, as these components are stocked by most distributors and are broadly compatible with standard manufacturing processes. The specific value and voltage rating of this part number can be determined from AVX's component marking system and technical documentation. For applications requiring guaranteed performance parameters, operating temperature ranges, voltage ratings, or reliability data, consulting AVX's technical resources or component specifications is recommended. This capacitor is suitable for engineers designing equipment where space efficiency and cost-effectiveness must be balanced with reliable performance in standard industrial operating conditions.
