About Kyocera AVX
AVX Corporation, now operating as Kyocera AVX following its acquisition by Kyocera Corporation in 2020, has been a pioneer in passive component technology since 1972. Headquartered in Fountain Inn, South Carolina, Kyocera AVX combines AVX's legacy in capacitor and connector innovation with Kyocera's ceramics and materials science expertise to deliver advanced component solutions.
Kyocera AVX is particularly known for its high-capacitance MLCCs, low-ESR tantalum capacitors, and automotive-grade OxiCap niobium oxide capacitors that resist ignition failure — a critical advantage in safety-critical automotive applications. The company's connector portfolio includes board-to-board, wire-to-board, and RF coaxial connectors (SMA, SMPM), while its advanced products division offers thin-film filters, UWB antennas, and IoT sensor modules.
Octatronics indexes Kyocera AVX components with parametric search by capacitance, voltage, ESR, package case code, and qualification standard. Submit RFQs for both commercial and automotive-qualified passive components with competitive pricing and traceable supply.

Electronic Component Derating Guide: Voltage, Current, Temperature, Power, and Pulse Margins
Electronic component derating is the practice of selecting and operating parts below maximum ratings to improve reliability. Buyers should review voltage, current, temperature, power, pulse, capacitance, and safe operating area margins before approving components or alternates. Derating is especially important for MLCCs, resistors, TVS diodes, MOSFETs, connectors, regulators, and industrial BOMs exposed to heat, surge, vibration, or long service life.
