12063A820FAT2A

# Product Description: AVX 12063A820FAT2A The AVX 12063A820FAT2A is a capacitor component designed for demanding industrial and commercial electronic applications. This part belongs to AVX's established line of surface-mount capacitors, engineered to deliver reliable performance in space-constrained designs where compact form factors are essential. The "12063" designation indicates this is a 1206-sized component, one of the most widely used surface-mount package dimensions in modern electronics manufacturing. This standardized package measures approximately 3.2mm x 1.6mm, making it suitable for automated assembly processes and high-density PCB layouts common in industrial control systems, power supplies, telecommunications equipment, and consumer electronics. The 820 designation in the part number typically indicates the nominal capacitance value within this component's intended range. AVX manufactures capacitors in various dielectric materials and technologies, and this specific part represents a configuration suited to applications requiring stable capacitance over temperature and frequency ranges commonly encountered in industrial environments. Engineers specify this exact part number when they require the precise combination of electrical properties, package characteristics, and manufacturing standards that AVX delivers in this particular configuration. The consistency and traceability of a specific part number is especially important in industrial applications where design validation, quality assurance, and long-term supply chain planning are critical factors. Rather than sourcing generic equivalents, specifying the full part number ensures compatibility with tested designs and maintains compliance with procurement specifications. This component is commonly found in filtering circuits, signal conditioning stages, power distribution networks, and timing circuits throughout industrial equipment. Its compact surface-mount package allows it to integrate seamlessly into modern multilayer PCBs without requiring significant board space, while maintaining the electrical performance required by contemporary industrial standards. The 12063 package format has achieved broad acceptance across the industry, meaning this part can typically be sourced from multiple distributors and manufactured with well-established, proven processes. This accessibility makes it an attractive choice for both prototype development and high-volume production runs. For engineers developing or supporting industrial electronic systems, specifying established AVX components like the 12063A820FAT2A helps ensure design reliability, simplifies qualification and testing workflows, and supports long-term product maintainability. The combination of proven package design, known manufacturing quality, and broad industry familiarity makes this part a practical choice for cost-conscious, reliability-focused applications.
