When used as resonant elements in oscillators, Q has to be as high as possible while the temperature coefficient has to be as small as possible. US MICROWAVES advanced semiconductor and thin film technologies allow for an important reduction of series resistance DCR, increased SRF, low insertion loss and skin effect at higher microwave frequencies. High quality dielectrics with low loss factors translate into an increased Q, very high insulation resistance, high breakdown voltage, long term stability under bias at high temperatures. US Microwaves MIS chip capacitors exhibit Q values in excess of 3000 in X band, insertion loss less than 0.08dB through Ku band and series resistance much lower than conventional ceramic chip capacitors. DCR of less than 0.1 ohms is typical for most chip sizes. MIS capacitors with silicon nitride/silicon oxide dielectric, also known as MNOS capacitors exhibit high stability, low temperature coefficients, low leakage in ≤nA range and high BV from 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 to 300V. MIS Chip capacitors are available in a wide range of die sizes, capacitance values and breakdown voltages. TECHNOLOGY DESCRIPTION: SEMICONDUCTOR-THIN FILM MANUFACTURING All thin film microwave products are manufactured using advanced semiconductors and thin film technologies including ultra-stable and self passivating Tantalum Nitride resistors, gold interconnect metallization and reliable MNOS capacitors to achieve excellent uniformity, performance and reliability. Thin film technology is the preferred solution for all applications that require low noise, long term stability and excellent performance at very high frequencies. US Microwaves employs proprietary thin film technologies for deposition of a wide range of resistive films with sheet resistance films from 1Ω/sq to 10,000Ω/sq.
