12062A200JAT2A

The AVX 12062A200JAT2A is a surface-mount multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designed for general-purpose filtering, decoupling, and energy storage applications in electronic circuits. This component belongs to the 1206 package family, one of the most widely used standard sizes in modern electronics manufacturing, offering a practical balance between capacitance density and ease of handling in automated assembly processes. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are fundamental building blocks in power supply circuits, signal coupling stages, and noise suppression networks across industrial and consumer electronics. The 1206 package dimensions make this capacitor suitable for applications where moderate capacitance values are required without demanding the smallest possible footprint. Engineers commonly specify components in this family for bulk decoupling near digital logic circuits, analog signal conditioning stages, and general filtering applications where reliability and cost-effectiveness are priorities. The AVX 12062A200JAT2A designation indicates this is a standard commercial-grade capacitor engineered for typical industrial operating conditions. Capacitors from AVX's 1206 MLCC lineup are known for consistent performance across temperature ranges commonly encountered in industrial and consumer applications. These components are frequently selected for applications requiring stable capacitance values, low equivalent series resistance (ESR), and minimal leakage current—characteristics that make MLCCs preferable to film or electrolytic alternatives in many situations. An engineer might specify this exact part number when a design requires a specific capacitance value in the 1206 package format with AVX's quality and supply chain reliability. Designers often standardize on particular manufacturers' product lines to maintain consistency across production runs, simplify procurement, and leverage established relationships with distributors. The 1206 package is also advantageous for rework and troubleshooting in manufacturing environments, as components are large enough for manual handling while remaining compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment. This component is commonly found in industrial control systems, telecommunications equipment, automotive electronics, power conversion circuits, and general-purpose embedded systems. Its versatility and widespread adoption make it a standard specification across numerous equipment categories. The straightforward form factor and proven reliability record make the AVX 12062A200JAT2A a practical choice for engineers designing or maintaining circuits requiring dependable capacitive performance in compact form factors.
