Types MCM and MIN SMT Clad RF Capacitors
Multilayer High Power, High Temperature Mica and PTFE Capacitors
Types MCM and MIN SMT clad PTFE and mica ca-
pacitors are top performers for high power applications
requiring low inductance at high frequencies and can
operate at temperatures up to 200 ºC and voltages to
1000 Vdc. Choosing from 16 different configurations
offers easy mounting with options for surface mount as
well as through-hole and mechanical assembly. To
assure high current capability in the smallest capaci-
tors, low-capacitance ratings use polytetrafluorethylene
(PTFE) that has ultra-low dielectric absorption - better
than polypropylene, polystyrene and NPO ceramic.
