Types MC and MCN Multilayer RF Capacitors
High-Frequency, High-Power Chips and New Nonmagnetic Option.
Rugged flexibility and compatibility with FR4 boards make Type
MC and MCN capacitors ideal for use where other larger size
multilayer caps aren’t recommended. The natural mica dielectric
retains its high-Q to many megahertz, so higher frequency
applications are limited by the circuit inductance, not the Type MC
capacitor. Now new nonmagnetic Type MCN chips are available
for MRI and other high frequency applications that often use more
expensive porcelain ceramic chips.
Highlights

• Rock stable: No change with time, V & f
• MRI Coils and Generators
• RF Instruments
• Power Amplifiers
• Transmitters
• CATV
• Ground and Flight Mobile Radio
• Lasers
