AVX Adds New Capacitance Values Voltage Ratings to its Range of C0G (NP0) MLCCs
AVX Corporation, a leading manufacturer of advanced passive components and interconnect solutions, has expanded its range of high reliability C0G/NP0 dielectric multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs).
Available in case sizes spanning 01005 to 2225, voltages up to 500V, and capacitance tolerances as low as ±0.1pF, AVX’s C0G/NP0 MLCCs provide one of the most stable capacitor dielectrics available in today’s market, making them ideal for resonant circuit applications requiring superior stability or a precise temperature coefficient. New values range from 3.3nF in 0603 to 10nF in the 0805 size. Additionally, a new 200V product up to 100pF is also now available in 0603.
The most popular formation of the temperature-compensating EIA Class I ceramic materials, modern C0G (NP0) formulations exhibit the lowest losses and most stable voltage and temperature characteristics of any ceramic capacitor application class. Additionally, C0G (NP0) formulations do not exhibit any aging characteristics.
