MULTILAYER CERAMIC CAPACITORS
High Q/Low ESR Series (GHQ)
1. INTRODUCTION
MLCC consists of a conducting material and electrodes. To manufacture a chip-type SMT and achieve
miniaturization, high density and high efficiency, ceramic condensers are used.
CCE's
GHQ
series MLCC is used at high frequencies generally have a small temperature coefficient of capacitance,
typical within the
±30ppm/°C
required for NP0 (C0G) classification and have excellent conductivity internal electrode.
Thus,
CCE GHQ
series MLCC will be with the feature of low ESR and high Q characteristics.
2. FEATURES
a.
b.
High Q and low ESR performance at high frequency.
Quality improvement of telephone calls for low
power loss and better performance.
3. APPLICATIONS
a.
b.
c.
Mobile telecommunication: Mobile phone, WLAN.
RF module: Power amplifier, VCO.
Tuners.
