0805YC104K4T2A

The 0805YC104K4T2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by AVX, one of the world's leading suppliers of passive electronic components. This capacitor is housed in an 0805 surface-mount package, which is one of the most widely used form factors in modern electronics due to its compact size and compatibility with automated assembly equipment. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are fundamental building blocks in virtually all electronic circuits. They serve critical functions including energy storage, signal filtering, noise decoupling, and frequency tuning across analog and digital applications. The 0805 package strikes an effective balance between space efficiency and ease of handling, making it ideal for high-density circuit boards where component miniaturization is important but manual rework remains feasible. AVX's 0805 ceramic capacitors are designed for general-purpose applications across consumer electronics, industrial equipment, telecommunications infrastructure, and automotive systems. These components are commonly found in power supply filtering networks, audio circuits, RF applications, and digital signal processing circuits. Their small footprint allows engineers to integrate capacitance where space constraints would eliminate larger packages, while maintaining reliable performance in demanding operational environments. The 0805YC series represents AVX's standard-performance ceramic capacitor line, engineered to deliver stable performance across typical industrial temperature ranges and voltage operating conditions. Ceramic capacitors in this class are valued for their cost-effectiveness, reliability, and availability in numerous capacitance values and voltage ratings, allowing design flexibility without requiring exotic or hard-to-source components. Engineers typically specify AVX 0805 ceramic capacitors when they require a balance of performance, cost, and supply chain reliability. AVX maintains consistent manufacturing quality and offers these components in a wide range of specifications, reducing design risk and simplifying inventory management for manufacturers. The established market presence of 0805 MLCCs means that qualified alternatives are available if needed, preventing single-source dependencies while still allowing optimization for specific application requirements. When selecting this particular part, engineers should verify that the capacitance value, voltage rating, and temperature coefficient specifications align with their circuit requirements. The 0805 package is compatible with standard reflow soldering processes and works well in automated manufacturing environments, contributing to lower assembly costs and faster production cycles. For applications requiring high reliability, stable performance across temperature extremes, or specific dielectric materials, engineers may compare this part against alternative manufacturers' offerings within the same package family.
