GX Series Ultra Broad Band Capacitor ADVANTAGES APPLICATIONS • Ultra-Broadband performance • Ultra-Low Insertion Loss • Semi-Conductor Data Communications Customers • X7R Characteristics • Receiver Optical Sub-Assemblies • Excellent Return Loss • Transimpedance Amplifier Customers • Test Equipment Manufactures The GX03 Series was developed specifically to address DC Blocking issues from ~16KHz (-3dB roll-off) to 40GHz in applications requiring higher voltages than available in our other Broadband offerings. Rated at 50VDC from -55ºC to +125ºC with X7R TCC, GX03 products exhibit low insertion loss & excellent return loss. Using AVX’s patented precision thin film termination process, the part is designed to be completely orientation insensitive with a standard EIA 0603 footprint to minimize board space requirements. Ni-Sn and Ni-Au terminations are available to cover a wide range of attachment processes. All GX parts are RoHS compliant. Au terminated units are wire bondable. Users may, therefore, find these devices useful in bypass applications when wire bonding is a necessary part of the manufacturing process. More information can be obtained by contacting the factory or your local AVX representative.
