Low Inductance LGA Capacitors
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AVX has introduced a revolutionary new capacitor for low inductance applications. Low
inductance LGA (land grid array) capacitors have virtually the equivalent high frequency
performance of 8-terminal IDC’s (Inter-Digitated Capacitors) but are built in a simplified
2 terminal package. This provides for lower manufacturing cost and easier handling
and design. LGA are ideal for decoupling in semiconductor package-level and board-
level applications.
