Today's wireless infrastructure applications have imposed more stringent requirements on wireless amplifier module design then ever before.

Whether designing for the best power added efficiency (PAE) or ultra linearity, the performance attributes of capacitor elements must be carefully considered.
The ideal capacitor would be one in which there is no Series Loss (ESR) yielding infinite Q, no series inductance (ESL) yielding infinite self-resonant frequency, and the ability to handle any RF current level. Of course this device only exists in a textbook sense.
ATC's latest family of 600 Series ultra stable, extremely low loss NPO capacitors offers solutions to all wireless infrastructure designs. The 600 Series products were specifically designed for the most critical RF and microwave applications.
The product line consists of a family of capacitor products packaged in the most popular EIA case sizes as well as ATC's traditional case sizes. These products encompass the industry's lowest ESR, 50mW @ 1 GHz typical for 600B, and the highest voltage rating making them ideal for high RF power as well as signal level wireless applications. This combination of attributes allows the designer to implement a new level of amplifier performance by enhancing power added efficiency (PAE), linearity, low noise and low phase distortion parameters so vitally needed by today's stringent design requirements. *
