Microwave Capacitors
Parallel Plate Ceramic Single Layer Microwave Capacitors (SLCs)
are ideally suited for applications such as GaAs integrated
circuits, microwave integrated circuits, DC block, bypass, and tuning,
and RF/microwave components. The SLC design offers
increased capacitance for additional bandwidth, increased stability in
capacitance over various temperatures, and more capacitance in
smaller case sizes for greater board density.
SLCs are suitable solutions for applications that require:
•
Through 40 GHz with minimum insertion loss.
•
Specified material from a selection of fourteen standard
dielectric options.
•
Imperviousness to electrostatic discharge and more ruggedness than MOS/MNS capacitors.
•
Gold plated electrode termination, which is compatible with solder, eutectic, epoxy and wire
bonding production methods.
