ATC 500 S Series BMC Broadband Microwave Millimeter-wave 0603 NPO SMT Capacitors Low Insertion Loss Ultra High Self Resonance Surface Mountable Rugged Construction ATC introduces the new 500 S Series Broadband Mi- crowave Capacitor (BMC).This unique, patented compo- nent greatly exceeds both multilayer and single layer capacitor performance. It delivers extremely low insertion loss with ultra-high self resonance performance, in a rugged, laser-marked package compatible with automatic SMT manufacturing. Functional applications include Broadband (Bypass, Cou- pling, Feedback, Impedance Matching, D.C. Blocking) and Tuning. PARALLEL RESONANCE VS. CAPACITANCE SERIES RESONANCE VS.
