The GX03 Series was developed specifically to address DC
Blocking issues from ~16KHz (-3dB roll-off) to 40GHz in
applications requiring higher voltages than available in our other
Broadband offerings. Rated at 50VDC from -55ºC to +125ºC
with X7R TCC, GX03 products exhibit low insertion loss &
excellent return loss. Using AVX’s patented precision thin film
termination process, the part is designed to be completely
orientation insensitive with a standard EIA 0603 footprint to
minimize board space requirements.
Ni-Sn and Ni-Au terminations are available to cover a wide range
of attachment processes. All GX parts are RoHS compliant.
Au terminated units are wire bondable. Users may, therefore, find
these devices useful in bypass applications when wire bonding
is a necessary part of the manufacturing process.
More information can be obtained by contacting the factory or
your local AVX representative.

Test Parameters:
Testing to 40GHz performed on Rodgers R04350 microstrip board (T = 10 mils); Trace width = 22 mils: Gap = 24 mils; 50 ohm
(nominal) characteristic impedance. Modelithics model developed through testing on several different substrates including
Alumina (T = 5 mils) measured through 65GHz. THe modeled results presented for R04350 were for a pad width = 20 mils and
a gap = 16 mils.
