12061A751JAT2A

The AVX 12061A751JAT2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for general-purpose filtering and decoupling applications in electronic systems. As a component from AVX's established capacitor product line, this part represents a reliable solution for engineers working across industrial control, telecommunications, consumer electronics, and embedded systems where stable capacitive performance is essential. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part function by storing and releasing electrical charge through stacked ceramic dielectric layers, making them ideal for power supply filtering, signal coupling and decoupling, and noise suppression. The compact form factor typical of this component family allows designers to achieve high capacitance values in minimal board space, which is particularly valuable in modern electronics where PCB real estate is constrained. The "1206" designation in the part number refers to the standard surface-mount package size (approximately 3.2mm × 1.6mm), which is one of the most widely used package dimensions in the industry. This standardized sizing means the part integrates seamlessly into existing PCB designs and manufacturing processes without requiring specialized placement or soldering equipment. Engineers can source compatible footprints from any standard PCB design library, streamlining both design and production workflows. AVX MLCCs are recognized for consistent quality and reliable performance across commercial and industrial temperature ranges. Components in this series are typically specified in applications requiring stable capacitance over time and across operating conditions, making them suitable for use in power distribution networks, analog filtering circuits, and high-frequency decoupling scenarios common in industrial equipment and embedded control systems. Engineers might select this specific part number when they require a proven, mid-range capacitor solution with established supply chain presence and compatibility with standard manufacturing processes. The AVX brand carries a reputation for manufacturing discipline and long-term availability, factors that matter significantly in industrial applications where component obsolescence and supply disruption can delay production. When evaluating alternatives, engineers should consider that this part's package size, voltage rating, and capacitance value combine to meet specific circuit requirements. Standard MLCC alternatives may vary in capacitance tolerance, operating temperature range, or voltage rating, making direct comparison important during the design selection process. This component is suitable for both prototype development and full-scale production runs, supporting applications from laboratory testing environments through high-volume manufacturing scenarios.
