Overview
The ATC 700 B Series NPO stands for precision and reliability in the sphere of Porcelain and Ceramic Multilayer Capacitors. These low ESR/ESL capacitors with zero Temperature Coefficient of Capacitance (TCC) offer exceptional performance for RF/Microwave applications. They range in capacitance from 0.1 pF to 5100 pF and are designed to handle extended Working Voltage (WVDC) up to 1500 VDC.
Product Specifications
These capacitors have an impressive Quality Factor (Q), which exceeds 10,000 for the lower capacitance values and remains high throughout the range. The Operating Temperature Range varies based on capacitance, with values from 0.1 pF to 200 pF supporting -55°C to +175°C and the 220 pF to 5100 pF range supporting -55°C to +125°C. A rugged and hermetic porcelain and ceramic construction enables the capacitor to withstand harsh environments.
Reliability and Performance
With a superior high self-resonance, this series is optimal for bypass, coupling, tuning, DC blocking, filter, and RF power amplifier circuits. The robust design ensures excellent moisture resistance, thermal shock endurance, and insulation resistance. These capacitors exhibit no aging effects or piezoelectric effects, offering consistent performance with minimal capacitance drift.
Environmental Tests
ATC 700 B Series Capacitors meet and exceed several standards, including EIA-198, MIL-PRF-55681, and MIL-PRF-123. They successfully pass critical tests for dielectric withstanding voltage, thermal shock, moisture resistance, and low voltage humidity, ensuring their durability and functionality in various challenging conditions.
Capacitance Values and Part Number Details
The datasheet includes a detailed Capacitance Values Table on the second page, showing standard and extended WVDC ratings for a wide array of capacitance codes. Customers can also specify custom values, tolerances, and higher WVDC by consulting the factory. The capacitors come with different termination styles suitable for various surface mount and leaded applications, and the part number code system is clearly explained to ensure accurate identification and ordering of components.
Quality and Support
As an ISO 9001 Registered Company, American Technical Ceramics provides not only high-quality products but also comprehensive support through their North American, European, and Asian offices. For ease of use, the datasheet mentions that customers can order parts using designations with or without the “ATC” prefix.
