“This new series has a fine-grained, high density, high purity dielectric material to keep out moisture, and includes an electrode system that has been optimized for high frequency performance,” said Larry Eisenberger, AVX product manager. “This makes the UQCL Series ideal for applications with high current carrying capabilities and high quality factors. The capacitors also offer low ESR and high series resonance.”
Applications such as microwave RF/IF amplifiers, mixers, oscillators, low noise amplifiers, and filter networks, as well as medical devices such as MRI coils, would all benefit from the UQCL Series’ characteristics, according to Eisenberger.
Available in 0402 sizes with voltages up to 200VDC, the UQCL Series offers superior stability under the stresses of changing voltage, frequency, time and temperature.
Pricing for the UQCL Series ranges from $0.05 to $0.40 in large quantity. Delivery is stock to eight weeks.
