GZ Series Maxi Broadband DC Block to 40GHz GENERAL INFORMATION The GZ Series was developed specifically to address DC Blocking issues from ~15KHz through 40GHz and incorporate small footprints to conserve board space. The three parts in this series are designed to match .015" (0.381mm) and .020" (0.508mm) micro strip widths. These assemblies (patent pending) combine high capacitance Ni-Au terminated MLC’s for low frequency coverage and specially configured Maxi dielectric Single Layer Ceramics to facilitate conventional surface mounting. Most applications will experience resonance-free performance of <0.5dB thru at least 26.5GHz. Insertion loss at higher frequencies is in part dependent on installation parameters. Custom designs (including those to match wider strip lines) are available upon request. Wire bondable designs for applications where strip line matching is not imperative, are also available. More information can be obtained by contacting the factory or your local AVX representative. The assemblies are especially robust and capable of exceeding Resistance to Flexure Stress tests normally applied to MLC’s. The high temperature connection between the MLC and SLC results in a joint whose re-melt temperature will withstand all normal soldering processes without deterioration. In applications where SN63 is used, the SLC termination will contribute <1% Au to the resultant joint–thereby, eliminating possible solder embrittlement problems.
