1825CA511JAT1A

The 1825CA511JAT1A is a ceramic capacitor manufactured by AVX, a leading supplier of passive electronic components. This part belongs to the 1825 series, which indicates it uses a surface-mount ceramic capacitor package format commonly found in modern electronics manufacturing. Ceramic capacitors in the 1825 series are designed for applications requiring reliable energy storage, filtering, and signal coupling across a broad range of industrial and commercial equipment. These capacitors are widely used in power supply circuits, where they help stabilize voltage and reduce ripple; in RF and analog signal conditioning circuits; and in digital logic boards where decoupling and bypass functions are critical. The 1825 package provides a compact footprint suitable for high-density PCB layouts while maintaining robust mechanical and electrical performance. AVX's 1825 series capacitors are known for consistent quality and long-term reliability, making them a standard choice in telecommunications infrastructure, automotive electronics, industrial control systems, and consumer appliances. The ceramic dielectric material offers stable capacitance across varying operating conditions and provides excellent frequency response characteristics, which is particularly valuable in filtering applications. Engineers typically specify this exact part number when their design requires a capacitor with the specific electrical characteristics encoded in the part designation. The "CA" designation within the part number indicates specific dielectric properties and performance class, while the numerical elements reference the capacitance value and voltage rating. AVX's 1825 series maintains tight manufacturing tolerances and offers multiple dielectric options to accommodate different circuit requirements, from general-purpose applications to those demanding higher stability or specific temperature characteristics. When selecting between ceramic capacitor alternatives, engineers consider factors including the required capacitance value, voltage rating, equivalent series resistance (ESR), frequency response, and operating temperature range. The 1825 form factor balances size constraints with electrical performance, making it suitable for space-constrained designs that cannot accommodate larger packages while still requiring dependable capacitive performance. AVX's reputation for manufacturing consistency and compliance with industry standards makes the 1825CA511JAT1A a trusted choice for OEMs and contract manufacturers who need components that will perform reliably throughout the product lifecycle. This part is particularly valuable for applications where board real estate is limited and where maintaining signal integrity and power supply stability are essential to system performance.
