MULTILAYER CERAMIC CAPACITORS
Ultra High Q & Low ESR Series (GUQ)
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.
Calchip GUQ series MLCC is used at high frequencies and generally have a small temperature coefficient of capacitance,
typical within the +/-30ppm/C required for NPO (COG) classification and have excellent conductivity internal electrode. Thus,
Calchip GUQ
series MLCC will be with the feature of low EST and high Q characteristics.
2. FEATURES
a.
b.
c.
d.
High Q and low ESR performance at high frequency.
Ultra low capacitance to 0.1pF.
Can offer high precision tolerance to ±0.05pF.
Quality improvement of telephone calls for low
power loss and better performance.
3. APPLICATIONS
a.
b.
c.
Telecommunication
products & equipments: Mobile
phone, WLAN, Base station.
RF module: Power amplifier, VCO.
Tuners.
