ATC 800 C Series
NPO Ceramic
High RF Power
Multilayer Capacitors
• Case C Size • Capacitance Range:
(.250" x .250") 2.2 pF to 3000 pF
• High Q • Ultra-Stable Performance
• Low ESR/ESL • High RF Current/Voltage
• High RF Power • High Reliability
• 3600 WVDC • RoHS Compliant, Pb free
ATC’s 800 C Series offers superb performance in demanding high
RF power applications requiring consistent and reliable operation.
The combination of highly conductive metal electrode systems,
optimized case geometries, and proprietary dielectrics, yields the
lowest ESR. ATC’s new NPO low loss rugged dielectrics are de-
signed to provide superior heat transfer in high RF power appli-
cations. Ultra-low ESR and superior thermal performance insure
that the 800 C Series products are your best choice for high RF
power applications from VHF through microwave frequencies.
Typical functional applications: Bypass, Coupling, Tuning, Impedance
Matching and DC Blocking.
Typical circuit applications: HF/RF Power Amplifiers, Transmitters,
Antenna Tuning, Plasma Chambers and Medical (MRI coils).

representative or call direct at (+1-631) 622-4700.
Consult factory for additional performance data.
ATC accepts orders for our parts using designations with or without the
“ATC” prefix. Both methods of defining the part number are equivalent,
i.e., part numbers referenced with the “ATC” prefix are interchangeable to
parts referenced without the “ATC” prefix. Customers are free to use either
in specifying or procuring parts from American Technical Ceramics.
