Knowles Milli-Cap Ultra Broadband Capacitors Suits up to 50GHz Applications 

4.5.2023
Reading Time: 3 mins read
A A

Knowles Precision Devices’ SMT Ultra Broadband Capacitors Milli-Cap® are designed to deliver reliable, ultra-low loss operation across a variety of applications including test equipment, fiber optic modules and broadband microwave/millimeter systems as ideal broadband blocking capacitors. It offers low frequency stability over extreme temperatures, space-saving footprints and more. 

High-speed broadband and fiber optic devices used across a variety of communication and military and aerospace applications require circuits that couple RF signals.

Inductor Resonances and its Impact to EMI

Since this involves removing the DC component and allowing only the high-frequency AC component to pass or bypass, this can be a complicated process.

The blocking capacitor needs to present a near reflection-less transition at the frequency the line is seeing and at a bandwidth that allows the entire signal to pass without degradation. 

While there are a number of broadband blocking capacitors on the market today, many struggle to provide low insertion loss over a broad frequency range. Knowles Precision Devices’ Broadband Milli-Cap® capacitor is designed to be the ideal single-piece construction surface mount (SMT) capacitor for broadband applications up to 50 GHz (most competitors only support up to 40 GHz). Milli-Cap’s voltage rating is the highest in the market while also offering the lowest insertion loss (see Figure 1).

Figure 1. This insertion loss plot shows two different Milli-Cap capacitors operating reliably up to 50 GHz; source: Knowles

Milli-Cap comes in three case sizes, which is the most options available for a high-performance SMT broadband blocking capacitor (Figure 2).

Figure 2. This chart shows the dimensions of the three different Milli-Cap capacitor offerings and a diagram of a Milli-Cap capacitor.; source: Knowles

Milli-Cap capacitors at each of these three case sizes are constructed using a variety of Class I and Class II dielectric materials depending on the temperature needs of the application. Milli-Cap is also orientation insensitive, which means there is no wrong way to attach the capacitor to your assembly. Additionally, Milli-Cap capacitors can be attached to a soft or hard substrate using a conductive epoxy or solder.

To summarize, the key features of our broadband Milli-Cap blocking capacitors are as follows:

  • 0201, 0402, and 0602 footprints
  • Low-loss, High Q
  • Very low series inductance
  • Ultra-high series resonance
  • Matches typical 50Ω line widths
  • Behaves like an ideal capacitor
  • Single-piece construction
  • Orientation insensitive
