ATC is pleased to announce the introduction of the 400S Series, Precision Tolerance NPO RF / Microwave SMTDiscrete miniature capacitors which are packaged without leads and fastened directly to foil patterns. capacitor.
The 400S Series has been designed and manufactured with the highest quality materials and a precision thin film process to provide reliable and repeatable performance. This unique component offers the tightest tolerances available (+/- 0.02 pFUnit of capacitance. The basic unit of a measure of a capacitor. A capacitor charged to 1 volt with a charge of 1 coulombA coulomb is the unit of electric charge. It is named after Charles-Augustin de Coulomb.1 coulomb is the amount of electric charge transported by a current of 1 ampere in 1 second. It can also be defined in terms of capacitance and voltage, where one coulomb is defined as one farad of capacitance times one volt of electric potential difference. would have a capacitance of 1 farad. 1 microF = .000001 Farads.), as well as low ESRLow Equivalent Series ResistanceLow Equivalent Series ResistanceLow Equivalent Series Resistance, and high series resonant frequencyThe number of complete cycles or vibrations per unit of time. Rate of alternation in an AC current. Expressed in cycles per second or hertz (Hz)..
The 400S has been engineered in an EIA 0603 SMTDiscrete miniature capacitors which are packaged without leads and fastened directly to foil patterns. package, making it fully compatible with high speed automated pick-and-place manufacturing operations. This product is superior for critical tuning applications where exact capacitanceThat property of a system of conductors and dielectrics which permits the storage of electricity when potential difference exists between the conductors. Its value is expressed as the ratio of a quantity of electricity to a potential difference. A capacitance value is always positive. values are required. The precision capacitanceThat property of a system of conductors and dielectrics which permits the storage of electricity when potential difference exists between the conductors. Its value is expressed as the ratio of a quantity of electricity to a potential difference. A capacitance value is always positive. tolerance of the 400S Series greatly reduces the need for end process tuning adding an extra benefit in reduced manufacturing cost. Its superior stable performance and reliability make it ideal for the full range of critical tuning applications as well as DC blocking and bypassing applications.
