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 ensure
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, Imped-
ance Matching and DC Blocking.
Typical circuit applications: HF/RF Power Amplifiers, Transmitters,
Antenna Tuning, Plasma Chambers and Medical (MRI coils).

The above part number refers to a 800 C Series (case size C) 22 pF capacitor, J tolerance (±5%),3600 WVDC,
with TN termination (RoHS Compliant, Tin Plated over Non-Magnetic Barrier Termination), laser marking and plastic Matrix Tray packaging.
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.
For additional information and catalogs contact your ATC
representative or call direct at (+1-631) 622-4700.
Consult factory for additional performance data.

800 C Current Rating vs. Capacitance
The current is based on a 65°C mounting surface
and a device thermal resistance of 15°C/W. A
power dissipation of 4 W will result in a case
temperature of 125°C.
