GENERAL INFORMATION
This new SLC family is a higher Q, low loss grain boundary
barrier layer (GBBL) system developed specifically as a
replacement for certain Class III materials.
With X7S temperature coefficient (±22%), the “Z” Series
not only offers a significant improvement over the
unexceptional TC performance of Z5U and Y5V
dielectrics, but does so over a much wider operating
temperature range from –55°C to +125°C. TC is very
predictable and, as shown on the graph below, is only
slightly concave between the temperature extremes.
Sputtered terminations provide excellent adhesion and
surface characteristics of this dielectric system are ideal
for wire bonding.
The Z Series is offered in a range of five dielectric
constants (2,500, 5,000, 9,000,14,000 and 18,000) and is
available with and without borders.
