12065C823K4T2A

The 12065C823K4T2A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by AVX, one of the leading producers of capacitive components for industrial and commercial applications. This component belongs to the 1206 package family, a widely standardized surface-mount format that measures 3.2mm by 1.6mm, making it suitable for compact circuit board designs where space efficiency is important without sacrificing reliability. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this part are fundamental building blocks in modern electronics, used primarily for energy storage, filtering, decoupling, and signal coupling applications. In industrial settings, they serve critical roles in power supply circuits, audio equipment, telecommunications infrastructure, computing systems, and control electronics. The ceramic dielectric construction provides stable performance across a broad range of operating conditions, making these capacitors particularly valuable in environments subject to temperature fluctuations or mechanical stress. The 1206 package format represents a practical balance between component density and ease of manufacturing. Engineers frequently specify this size because it offers sufficient capacitance density for most general-purpose filtering and coupling applications while remaining easy to handle during assembly and rework operations. The package is compatible with standard surface-mount assembly equipment found in most contract manufacturing facilities, reducing production complexity and cost. AVX's multilayer ceramic capacitors are recognized for consistent quality and reliability in demanding industrial applications. The 12065C823K4T2A specifically carries the designation that indicates its particular capacitance value and voltage rating within AVX's product portfolio. Parts from this series are commonly selected for applications requiring stable performance over extended operational lifespans, including equipment operating in manufacturing plants, power distribution systems, automotive electronics, and industrial control systems. When engineers evaluate this part against alternatives, key considerations typically include the specific capacitance value, voltage rating, and temperature coefficient characteristics needed for their circuit design. The 1206 format provides a sweet spot for many applications—offering more capacitance than smaller packages like 0805, while maintaining better space efficiency than larger alternatives. This makes it a frequently stocked component in industrial supply chains. The reliability of AVX components in this category is well-established across decades of deployment in harsh industrial environments, contributing to the widespread specification of parts like the 12065C823K4T2A in original equipment designs. For applications requiring a dependable ceramic capacitor in a standard, widely-compatible package, this part represents a proven solution backed by established manufacturing standards and quality assurance processes.
