Huntington, New York—July2018
Passive Plus, Inc. (PPI) has developed aseries of Broadband Capacitors available in 4 different case sizes:01005BB, 0201BB, 0402BB, and0805BB. Values available are 10nF (10,000pF) and 100nF (100,000pF).
These capacitors are intended primarily for coupling RF signals or, occasionally, for bypassing them to ground,while blocking DC. The applications for which theyare intended require small, surface-mountable devices thatprovide low RF impedances, i.e., low insertion losses and reflections, across extremely large RF bandwidths andtemperatures typically ranging from-55 to +125°C.
Applications for the Broadband series are primarily found in the”signal integrity” market:
● Optoelectronics/highspeed data
● ROSA/TOSA (Transmit/Receive opticalsubassemblies)
● SONET (Synchronous Optical Networks)
● Broadband testequipment
● Broadband microwave and millimeter wave amplifiers and oscillators
Customers requiring surface-mountable, 10nFor 100nF capacitors that provide resonance-free, low insertion loss,low reflection operation over extremely large RF bandwidths will be well served by PPI’s Broadbandseries.
