2225SC821KAT1A

The 2225SC821KAT1A is a multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) manufactured by AVX, a leading supplier of passive components for industrial electronics. This component belongs to the 2225 case size family, which represents a standard metric package widely used in compact and space-constrained circuit designs across numerous applications. Multilayer ceramic capacitors like this model serve as essential energy storage and filtering elements in electronic circuits. They are commonly employed for decoupling, bypassing, coupling, and filtering applications where reliable performance and compact form factors are required. The 2225 package size offers engineers a balance between capacitance density and ease of integration into modern PCB layouts, making it suitable for both surface-mount manufacturing in high-volume production and custom engineering applications. The AVX 2225SC series is recognized in the electronics industry for consistent quality and reliability across demanding industrial environments. These capacitors are frequently specified in power supply circuits, signal conditioning boards, automotive electronics, telecommunications equipment, industrial control systems, and consumer electronics. Their multilayer ceramic construction provides stable electrical performance across a range of operating conditions, which is why they remain a popular choice for mission-critical applications where component failure can impact system reliability. Engineers typically specify the exact part number 2225SC821KAT1A when circuit requirements demand a particular combination of capacitance value, voltage rating, and temperature characteristics that this specific variant provides. The designation within the part number encodes these electrical and thermal properties, allowing designers to select the precise component needed rather than over-specifying alternatives that may increase costs or board space unnecessarily. The 2225 package format is compatible with standard surface-mount assembly equipment, reducing manufacturing complexity and enabling cost-effective production runs. This compatibility extends the component's applicability across small prototype builds and large-scale manufacturing operations alike. Additionally, the established nature of the 2225 MLCC family means that multiple qualified suppliers typically stock this package size, providing supply chain security for long-term production programs. For designers working with legacy equipment or maintaining existing product lines, the 2225SC821KAT1A offers proven interchangeability with historically used components, minimizing redesign risk. Whether integrated into new product development or serving as a direct replacement in field service applications, this AVX capacitor delivers the electrical performance and reliability expectations established within the 2225 MLCC product category.
