2220CC224MAT1A

The 2220CC224MAT1A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor manufactured by AVX, representing a standard component in the 2220 package size category. This component is designed for general-purpose energy storage, filtering, and coupling applications across a broad range of industrial and commercial electronic equipment. Multilayer ceramic capacitors of this type function as passive components that store electrical energy in an electric field. They are commonly employed in power supply circuits, signal conditioning applications, noise filtering, and AC/DC coupling stages. The 2220 package denotes a surface-mount device with dimensions of 0.22 inches by 0.22 inches, making it suitable for modern printed circuit board assembly processes where space efficiency and automated placement are important considerations. AVX's capacitor lineup, including this model, is widely recognized in industrial applications requiring reliable performance across temperature fluctuations and electrical stress cycles. Components in this family typically serve applications in telecommunications infrastructure, automotive electronics, industrial control systems, LED lighting systems, and distributed power management networks. The multilayer ceramic construction provides good frequency response characteristics, making these capacitors effective for both DC blocking and AC filtering tasks across the audio, radio frequency, and power frequency spectrums. Engineers often select capacitors from AVX's established product lines when designing circuits that demand consistent performance from familiar, well-documented component families. The 2220 package size offers a practical middle ground between smaller chip capacitors and larger form factors, allowing circuit designers to balance component density with ease of handling and repair accessibility. This size category is particularly common in applications where moderate capacitance values are needed without resorting to larger or more specialized component types. The designation "CC" in the part number typically indicates this is a general-purpose ceramic capacitor, while the "224" element represents the capacitance value in picofarad units using standard electronic notation. AVX's manufacturing standards ensure that components meet industrial reliability expectations for thermal cycling, vibration resistance, and long-term stability in demanding environments. When specifying the 2220CC224MAT1A, engineers benefit from selecting a component with established supply chain presence and proven field performance history. This familiarity reduces design validation time and simplifies procurement for manufacturers building equipment in industrial sectors where component consistency and availability are critical factors. The component integrates readily into existing assembly processes and testing protocols that engineering teams have already established.
