AVX has enhanced its land-grid array (LGA) capacitor product offering to include a low-inductance, two-terminal 0805 package for advanced decoupling applications. Designated the LGC series, the component is available with 100% tin and tin-lead terminations to provide claimed high-frequency performance similar to an eight-terminal interdigitated capacitor (IDC), making it relevant for design engineers in both commercial and military and aerospace applications.
The LGC decoupling capacitor series provides capacitance values of 1,0 μF at 6,3 V and 2,2 μF at 4 V in an X5R dielectric formation across an operating temperature range of -55°C to +85°C. The SnPb termination models are suitable for high-speed decoupling of military and aerospace CPUs, GPUs, server and networking applications.
