CDV30FF102JO3

Mica and PTFE capacitors are used for a wide range of applications including RF/microwave, high frequency, and other applications requiring small size and low profile capacitors.

The CDV30FF102JO3 is a custom mica and PTFE capacitor that is designed for a specific application. It is a low profile capacitor in a size of 0.3 x 2.0 mm. It is especially suitable for use in high frequency circuits where space is a major factor. This capacitor is also suitable for use in high speed switching applications.

The core of the capacitor is a sheet of mica, which is impregnated with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). This material offers a very low dielectric constant of 2.3, which makes it very ideal for high frequency applications. The two terminals are made from a silver alloy. The whole capacitor is encapsulated in a PTFE package.

The working principle of the CDV30FF102JO3 is relatively simple. When voltage is applied, the mica dielectric material stores electric charge. This electric charge results in an electric field that creates an attraction between the two terminals, thus creating a capacitance. The relative size of the capacitance can be controlled by the thickness of the mica, as well as the distance between the two electrodes.

Mica and PTFE capacitors, such as the CDV30FF102JO3, is a perfect solution in a variety of high frequency and high speed applications. They are low profile, small, and light weight, and offer good performance in terms of dielectric constant, leakage current, insulation resistance, and stability.
