Miniature Ultra-Broadband Capacitors Deliver Low Insertion and Return Losses

Jan 18, 2012 11:11 AM


AVX Corporation has expanded on its miniature ultra-broadband capacitors, GX Series, to include the GX01 ultra-broadband capacitor that addresses DC blocking issues from 160kHz (-3dB roll-off) to 40GHz. The GX01 capacitor provides a low insertion loss value of 0.5dB through at least 40GHz. Designed utilizing AVX's patented precision termination process, the GX01 ultra-broadband capacitor features a standard EIA 0201 footprint to minimize board space requirements, and is available with X5R or X7S dielectric characteristics.

The GX01 ultra-broadband capacitor is ideal for applications such as semiconductor data communications, optical receiver subassemblies, trans-impedance amplifiers and test equipment.

The GX Series is available in 100% tin terminations. All GX01 parts are RoHS compliant.

Lead time for the GX01 ultra-broadband capacitor is stock to six weeks.
