12061A392F3T4A

The AVX 12061A392F3T4A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for high-reliability applications in industrial and commercial electronics. This component belongs to AVX's established family of surface-mount ceramic capacitors, commonly used in power supply circuits, filtering stages, and signal conditioning applications across a wide range of equipment. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are fundamental building blocks in modern electronics, serving critical functions in energy storage, noise filtering, and AC coupling throughout circuit boards. The 12061A392F3T4A designation indicates this capacitor uses AVX's proven construction and material selection, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments where component longevity and performance consistency are essential. The part number structure reveals key characteristics about this capacitor's design. The "12061A" prefix identifies it within AVX's standard product family, while the "392" and subsequent characters encode information about its electrical rating and dielectric system. Capacitors in this series are typically employed in applications requiring stable performance across temperature cycling, vibration, and thermal stress—conditions common in industrial control systems, telecommunications equipment, and power distribution modules. Engineers specify this exact part number when they require a capacitor that combines proven reliability with consistent electrical characteristics across production batches. AVX MLCCs are widely recognized for tight tolerancing, low equivalent series resistance (ESR), and excellent frequency response, making them suitable for both DC blocking and AC filtering roles. In power supply designs, these capacitors help maintain voltage stability and reduce ripple. In signal processing circuits, they enable accurate coupling and filtering without signal distortion. The surface-mount package format allows for efficient automated assembly, reducing manufacturing costs while maintaining high reliability. This makes the 12061A392F3T4A particularly attractive for volume production runs where consistency and traceability are important quality metrics. Industrial buyers often choose AVX capacitors when specification stability matters—situations where second-source alternatives might introduce design risk or require additional validation testing. The component's construction typically provides excellent performance in temperature-cycling applications and maintains stable capacitance across the operating temperature range relevant to most industrial equipment. This capacitor would typically be found in applications ranging from industrial motor drives and frequency converters to programmable logic controllers, power management modules, and distributed I/O systems. Engineers value this part for applications where component history and predictable long-term performance outweigh price as a primary selection criterion.
