 Broadband Capacitors

ATC’s new 550L Ultra-Broadband Capacitor is manufactured with highest quality materials to provide reliable and repeatable Ultra-Broadband performance from 16 KHz through 40+ GHz. It exhibits ultra-low insertion loss, flat frequency response and excellent return loss, and is ideal for D.C. Blocking, Coupling, Bypassing and Feedback applications requiring Ultra-Broadband performance.

The 550L is a one-piece orientation-insensitive 0402 SMT package, fully compatible with high speed automated pick-and-place manufacturing. It is designed to meet the most stringent requirements of Ultra-Broadband applications.
