Capacitors suit low gigahertz applications
High-power RF capacitors suit applications requiring high-frequency operation into the low gigahertz range and high-temperature operation up to 200C.
The R level approval is in addition to the M and P levels which were received in 2004.
CLR79 is listed as MIL-C-39006/22 and CLR81 as MIL-C-39006/25.
The Type CLR79 is similar to Cornell Dubilier's commercial Type TAT, and CLR81 is similar to Cornell Dubilier's Type TAX.
Both types have hermetically sealed cylindrical tantalum cases with a special double-seal construction.
Types CLR79 and CLR81 are widely used in avionics applications because of their high energy density and ability to withstand the rigours of outer space.
These types offer up to 15 times the capacitance of a solid tantalum capacitor in the same size and voltage.
Capacitance ranges from 1.7 to 680uF, voltage from 25 to 125V DC, and operating temperature is -55 to +125C.
List prices are from $14.00 and lead-time is stock to 12 weeks.
