PASSIVE PLUS, INC. ULTRA-BROADBAND CERAMIC CAPACITORS:
16 KHZ TO > 67 GHZ
www.passiveplus.com
Huntington, New York --- November 2014
Passive Plus Inc. has introduced the 01005BB104 and 0201BB104 ultra-broadband 100 nF multilayer ceramic
capacitors. The 01005BB104 – the industry’s smallest 100 nF broadband part characterized for RF
performance -- has a case measuring (mils) 16 x 8 x 8, and offers resonant-free RF coupling/DC blocking from
16 KHz (lower 3-dB frequency) to beyond 65 GHz with < 1 dB insertion loss and < -15 dB return loss on
suitable substrates. The 01005BB104 is rated at a DC working voltage (WVDC) of 4.0 and is available in a
nickel-tin termination.
The 0201BB104 has a case measuring (mils) 24 x 12 x 12, and offers resonant-free RF coupling/DC blocking
from 16 KHz (lower 3-dB frequency) to beyond 65 GHz with < 1.3 dB insertion loss and < -15 dB return loss
on suitable substrates. Insertion loss to 40 GHz is typically < 0.6 dB, with return loss < -20 dB. The
0201BB104 is rated at a DC working voltage (WVDC) of 16.0 and is available in nickel-tin and gold
terminations.
Both the 01005BB104 and the 0201BB104 have global RF models available (with 30-day free trials) from
Modelithics Inc. that enable accurate CAD simulation on various substrates, with a range of mounting pad
dimensions. All lots are tested at RF frequencies to insure performance consistency.
Passive Plus offers a wide variety of ultra-high-Q, broadband, and general purpose multi-layer ceramic
capacitors for commercial and military applications.
With over 30 years in the RF/Microwave industry, Passive Plus, Inc. manufactures high quality, high power
passive components using state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques. Specializing in Magnetic & NonMagnetic HI-Q Capacitors product lines, PPI supplies reliable quality components to the aerospace,
telecommunications, medical, semiconductor equipment and military industries.

Test conditions: Typical responses for sample placed across a 0.127 mm (5.0 mil) gap between 0.29 mm
(11.4 mil) wide, 0.21 mm (8.3 mil) long mounting pads on 4-mil Rogers RO4350B. Measured and
modeled data are de-embedded to the mounting pad edges using TRL calibration procedures.
