Type MC, Surface-Mount Mica Chip Capacitors
Chip and SMT
Capacitors
High-Frequency, High-Stability Chip for Instruments and RF
With self-resonant frequencies typically above
one gigahertz for popular RF capacitance values
and with a Q above 2,000,
Type MC
capacitors
are the answer for high-frequency applications
like flight radio and cable television. The natural
mica dielectric retains its high-Q to many
megahertz, so higher and higher frequency
applications are limited by the circuit inductance,
not the Type MC capacitor.
