Accu-P® Thin-Film RF capacitors from AVX Corporation are a straightforward BRF that is also inexpensive and small. Most high frequency/microwave capacitors were previously made of based on porcelain technology that has been heated. Interleaved metal alloy electrode paste and ceramic dielectric material layers are then fused in a high-temperature oven. The dielectric characteristics (losses, dielectric constant, and insulation resistance), electrode conductivity, and physical size of this technology's components are all variable.
Features
The main features of Accu-P® may be summarized as follows:
1. High Q-factor: The Accu-P® Thin-Film RF capacitors feature an exceptionally high Q-factor, which reduces energy loss and enhances their performance in high-frequency applications
2. Tight Tolerance: The capacitors are produced with strict tolerances, ensuring reliable operation under a variety of operating circumstances.
3. Low equivalent series resistance (ESR): The capacitors have a low ESR, which reduces energy loss and increases their efficiency as energy storage devices.
4. High Power Handling: Due to their high power handling capacity, Accu-P® Thin-Film RF capacitors are appropriate for use in high-power applications.
5. Wide Frequency Range: Because the capacitors can function over a wide frequency range, they can be used in a variety of RF and microwave applications.
6. RoHS Compliant: As a result of its full adherence to the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive, Accu-P® Thin-Film RF capacitors are an eco-friendly component.
