Designed to satisfy communications market demand
for smaller RF capacitors capable of repeatable RF performance, the
new KGU Series C0G (NP0) RF MLCCs pack features including ultra-low
ESR, high power, high Q, high SRF, and tight tolerances into
miniature EIA chip sizes ranging from 01005 to 0805.
FOUNTAIN
INN, S.C., Aug. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- KYOCERA AVX,
a leading global manufacturer of advanced electronic components
engineered to accelerate technological innovation and build a
better future, released the new ultra-low-ESR KGU Series C0G (NP0)
RF multilayer ceramic chip capacitors (MLCCs).
New KGU Series miniature C0G (NP0) RF MLCCs
deliver ultra-low ESR, high power, high Q, high SRF, and tight
tolerances.
Inspired by growing communications market demand for smaller RF
capacitors that deliver repeatable RF performance, the new KGU
Series RF MLCCs pack multiple performance advantages optimized for
communications applications into four miniature EIA chip sizes
ranging from 01005 to 0805. The series features Class I C0G (NP0)
ceramic dielectric materials, which are one of the most stable
capacitor dielectrics available — exhibiting a temperature
coefficient of capacitance (TCC) of 0±30ppm/°C and essentially zero
voltage coefficient, and base metal electrodes made of copper
plated with a tin/nickel alloy, which deliver high
capacitance-voltage (CV) capabilities in small case sizes. It also
exhibits ultra-low equivalent series resistance (ESR), high power,
high Q, high self-resonant frequencies (SRF), and tight tolerances
— all of which are beneficial for countless communications
applications.
KGU Series RF MLCCs are currently available in four miniature
EIA chip sizes (01005, 0402, 0603, and 0805) and rated for 16–250V,
0.1–100pF, tolerances as low as ±0.05pF, and operating temperatures
extending from -40°C to +125°C. Ideal applications for the series
include filter networks, matching networks, high-Q frequency
sources, and tuning, coupling, bypass, and DC blocking circuits in
cellular base stations, 802.11 Wi-Fi networks, subscriber-based
wireless devices, and broadband wireless, satellite communications,
and public safety radio systems.
Additional features of the new KGU Series RF MLCCs include RoHS
compliance, resistance to thermal shock, long lifetime performance,
a lack of both aging and piezoelectric effects, and tape and reel
packaging for automated assembly.
"Our new KGU Series C0G (NP0) RF MLCCs provide customers in the
communications market with a collection of performance
characteristics optimized to satisfy their application demands,
including ultra-low ESR, high repeatability, high power, high Q,
high SRF, tight tolerances, and miniature EIA chip sizes," said
Mohammed Abu-Naim, RF Product
Manager, KYOCERA AVX.
