Because it meets the requirements of the DSRC IEEE 802.11p V2X communications standard, for both vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) applications, mainly in Europe and North America using the 5.9 GHz band, the GCQ series can be used for DC filtering and RF matching. The self-resonance frequency characteristic of the 2.2pF device suits DC filtering according to the DSRC IEEE 821.11p requirement.
The series has been packaged in a 0402 size (1.0 mm x 0.5mm) and has an operating temperature range from -55 to + 125C. The high Q rating is achieved by the use of copper internal electrodes.
Mass production is scheduled to start during the first half of 2016.
