ATC 800 B Series
NPO Ceramic, High RF Power
Ultra-Low ESR
Multilayer Capacitors
ATC’s 800 B Series offers superb performance in demanding high RF
power applications requiring consistent and reliable operation. The
combination of highly conductive metal electrode systems, optimized
case geometries, and proprietary dielectrics, yields the lowest ESR.
ATC’s new NPO low loss rugged dielectrics are designed to provide
superior heat transfer in high RF power applications. Ultra-low ESR
and superior thermal performance insure that the 800 B Series prod-
ucts are your best choice for high RF power applications from VHF
through microwave frequencies.
Typical applications: VHF / UHF / HDTV Broadcast Transmitters, Wire-
less Communications, Public Safety Radio, Avionics, Telecom, WiMAX,
Microwave Communication Systems and Satellite Systems.
Typical circuit applications: High RF Power Filter Networks, Combiners,
Couplers, Matching Networks, Output Coupling, Antenna Coupling, and
DC Blocking and Bypassing.
