The Ultra-low ESR “U” range offers a very stable, High Q material system
that provides excellent low loss performance in systems below 3GHz.
Optimised for lowest possible ESR, this range of high frequency capacitors
is suitable for many applications where economical, high performance is
required.

Note curves are typical, based on data measured using a Boonton 34A resonant tube and Keysight E4991 impedance analyser
with Keysight 16197A test fixture
Actual performance in circuit may differ and parts should be tested in application.
