ATC 700 A Series NPO
Porcelain and Ceramic
Multilayer Capacitors
• Case A Size
(.055" x .055")
• Low ESR/ESL
• Low Noise
• Rugged Construction
• Extended WVDC
up to 250 VDC
ATC, the industry leader, offers new improved ESR/ESL performance for
the 700 A Series RF/Microwave Capacitors. The superior high self- res-
onance and zero TCC characteristic of this Series provide excellent per-
formance over a broad range of RF and microwave applications requir-
ing minimum drift. High density porcelain and ceramic constructions pro-
vide a rugged, hermetic package.
Typical functional applications: Bypass, Coupling, Tuning and DC
Blocking.
Typical circuit applications: Filters, Oscillators and Timing
• Capacitance Range
0.1 pF to 1000 pF
• Zero TCC
• High Self-Resonance
• Established Reliability (QPL)

packaging.
ATC accepts orders for our parts using designations
with
or
without
the
“ATC” prefix. Both methods of defining the part number are equivalent, i.e.,
part numbers referenced with the “ATC” prefix are interchangeable to parts
referenced without the “ATC” prefix. Customers are free to use either in
specifying or procuring parts from American Technical Ceramics.
For additional information and catalogs contact your ATC
representative or call direct at (+1-631) 622-4700.
Consult factory for additional performance data.
