Accu-P® Series Capacitors

AVX's Accu-P series capacitors have a very tight capacitance tolerance for high-frequency signal applications

Image of AVX's Accu-P® Series CapacitorsAVX's Accu-P SMD capacitors are designed for soldering to printed circuit boards or other substrates. The construction of the components is such that they will withstand the time/temperature profiles used in both wave and reflow soldering methods.

The Accu-P meets the fast-growing demand for low-loss (high-Q) capacitors for use in surface mount technology especially for the mobile communications market, such as cellular radio of 450 MHz and 900 MHz, UHF walkie-talkies, UHF cordless telephones to 2.3 GHz, low noise blocks at 11 GHz to 12.5 GHz, and for other VHF, UHF, and microwave applications. Accu-P is currently unique in its ability to offer very low capacitance values (0.05 pF) and very tight capacitance tolerances (±0.01 pF).
