ATC 500S Series BMC
Broadband Microwave
Millimeter-wave
0603 NPO
SMTCapacitors
• Low Insertion Loss
• Ultra High Self Resonance
• Surface Mountable
• Rugged Construction
ATC introduces the new 500 S Series Broadband
Microwave Capacitor (BMC).This unique, patented
component greatly exceeds both multilayer and single
layer capacitor performance. It delivers extremely low
insertion loss with ultra-high self resonance
performance, in a rugged, laser-marked package
compatible with automatic SMT manufacturing.
Functional applications include Broadband (Bypass,
Coupling, Feedback, Impedance Matching, D.C.
Blocking) and Tuning.

ATC accepts orders for our parts using designations
with
or
without
the
“ATC” prefix. Both methods of defining the part number are equivalent, i.e.,
part numbers referenced with the “ATC” prefix are interchangeable to parts
referenced without the “ATC” prefix. Customers are free to use either in
specifying or procuring parts from American Technical Ceramics.
The above part number refers to a 500S Series (case size S) 2.2 pF capacitor,
B tolerance (±0.1 pF), Termination Code S (Platinum with gold flash), 100 WVDC, with marking and 5'' tape and reel packaging.
