ATC 520L BROADBAND MULTILAYER CAPACITORS ATC 520L Broadband Multilayer Capacitors Features: EIA 0402 Case Size Operating Frequency 160 KHz to 16 GHz Insertion Loss: 1 dB max. Low Loss X7R Dielectric Solderable SMT Terminations Advantages: ATC, the industry leader, is introducting the new 520L Series Broadband Performance Multilayer Broadband Capacitor. This device provides low Low Insertion Loss insertion loss performance over multiple octaves of fre- quency spectrum. The 520L capacitor is compatible with Flat Frequency Response high speed automated pick and place SMT manufacturing. Excellent Return Loss through 16 GHz Unit-to-Unit Performance Repeatability The 520L is ideal for broadband DC blocking, coupling, bypassing, and feedback applications in optical com- Rugged Ceramic Construction munications systems and equipment using high-speed digital logic. 520L Insertion Loss (S21) 520L Return Loss (S11) 0 0 -0.2 -10 -0.4 -0.6 -20 -0.8 -1 -30 -1.2 -40 -1.4 (Typical) -1.6 (Typical) -50 -1.8 -2 -60 02468 10 12 14 16 02 46 8 10 12 14 16 Frequency (GHz) Frequency (GHz) ATC 520L Data Sheet Test Condition Description All testing performed on 10-mil-thick Rogers RO4350 microstrip board, with the UUT subtending a 24 mil gap in a 22-mil-wide center trace (nominal 50-ohm characteristic impedance). Measurements were made using an Anritsu 3680K Universal Test Fixture and an HP8722D Vector Network Analyzer having a four-receiver architecture. Measurements have been de-embedded to the edges of the UUT using a standard TRL calibration procedure. ATC 001-988 Rev.
