RF/Microwave C0G (NP0)
Capacitors (Sn/Pb)
Ultra Low ESR, “U” Series, C0G (NP0) Chip Capacitors
GENERAL INFORMATION
“U” Series capacitors are C0G (NP0) chip capacitors specially
designed for “Ultra” low ESR for applications in the commu-
nications market. Max ESR and effective capacitance
are met on each value producing lot to lot uniformity.
Sizes available are EIA chip sizes 0402, 0603, 0805, and
1210.
