American Technical Ceramics 400 Z Series Precision Tolerance NPO RF Microwave Capacitors are manufactured with the highest quality materials to provide reliable and repeatable performance.
The 400Z is constructed with a low loss silicon dioxide and silicon oxynitride dielectricThe insulating material between the plates of the capacitor. The material is chosen for its ability to permit electrostatic attraction and repulsion to take place across it. The material will have the property that energy required to establish an electric field is recoverable in whole or in part, as electric energy. In other words, a good dielectric material is a poor conductor of electricity while being an effective supporter of electrostatic fields. along with high quality sputtered electrodeA solid electric conductor through which an electric current enters or leaves in a medium materials to ensure superior performance. High electrical and thermal conductivity and high stability over temperature make this device suitable for a variety of critical small and large signal RF and microwave applications. This Series offers the tightest tolerances available over a wide range of 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. The 400Z is built in an 0201 SMTDiscrete miniature capacitors which are packaged without leads and fastened directly to foil patterns. package and is fully compatible with high speed automated pick-and-place manufacturing.? It is designed to meet the most stringent RF and Microwave requirements.
