1206AA151JAT1A

The 1206AA151JAT1A is a chip capacitor manufactured by AVX, part of their established surface-mount component lineup. This component is housed in a 1206 package, one of the most widely adopted standard sizes for surface-mount technology applications. The 1206 form factor provides a good balance between space efficiency and ease of handling during PCB assembly, making it suitable for both manual rework and automated production environments. Based on the part number designation, this is a fixed-value capacitor designed for general-purpose circuit applications across industrial, commercial, and consumer electronics. Chip capacitors in this package size are fundamental passive components used to perform critical functions including power supply filtering, signal coupling and decoupling, bypass filtering, and noise suppression throughout electronic systems. AVX's 1206 capacitors are commonly specified in applications requiring reliable performance in compact form factors where board space is constrained. Industrial equipment manufacturers, control system designers, and embedded systems developers routinely incorporate these components into power management circuits, mixed-signal modules, and RF/analog signal conditioning stages. The 1206 package remains a standard choice in legacy and modern designs alike, supporting both retrofit applications and new product development. Engineers typically specify this exact part number when their circuit design calls for a capacitor with the specific value indicated in the part number suffix, combined with AVX's known quality standards and the proven reliability of the 1206 package platform. AVX's manufacturing processes ensure consistent electrical characteristics and long-term stability, which are important considerations in industrial and mission-critical applications where component failure rates must be minimized. The 1206 package format offers practical advantages for manufacturing and serviceability. Components are readily available from multiple distributors, assembly houses understand the package well, and replacement or rework is straightforward compared to smaller packages. This widespread adoption also means design engineers have extensive reference materials and application examples available when incorporating these components into new designs. Designers selecting this part would typically do so when their bill of materials specifies this exact capacitor value and they require the reliability and consistency associated with AVX components. The combination of the standardized 1206 package, AVX's reputation in the capacitor market, and the specific electrical value make this part a direct, specified choice rather than a general-purpose alternative.
