Microwave Single Layer
X7S Capacitors
Z Dielectric With and Without Borders
GENERAL INFORMATION
This grain boundary barrier layer (GBBL) system was
developed as a replacement for conventional Z5U/Y5V
dielectrics. With X7S temperature characteristics, the Z
Series offers not only a significant improvement over the
TCC of these two dielectrics, but does so over a much
wider operating range of -55C to +125°C. Voltage ratings
of 50 and 100VDC are available.
The Z Series is offered in a range of five dielectric constants
(2,500, 5,000, 9,000, 14,000 and 18,000) and products are
available with & without borders.
