About ATC / Kyocera-AVX — World Leader in RF Capacitors
American Technical Ceramics (ATC) has been the recognized industry leader in RF/microwave ceramic capacitors for over 50 years. Founded in 1966 and headquartered in Huntington Station, New York, USA, ATC pioneered porcelain multilayer capacitor technology that set the performance benchmarks for the entire RF industry. In 2020, ATC became part of Kyocera-AVX, combining ATC's RF capacitor expertise with Kyocera's advanced ceramic materials technology and AVX's global manufacturing and distribution network.
Key ATC innovations include the 600 series ultra-low ESR capacitors (industry's first Q>2000 MLCC), the Accu-P thin-film capacitor (industry's most precise ±0.01pF tolerance, operating to 40GHz), the UBC ultra-broadband capacitor (patented series resonance suppression for 50GHz+ operation), and the SLC single-layer capacitor (enabling millimeter-wave MMIC integration with sub-picohenry parasitics).
ATC capacitors are manufactured in ISO 9001 and AS9100 (aerospace) certified facilities in the United States. They are specified in reference designs and application notes from every major RF semiconductor manufacturer including Analog Devices (ADI), Texas Instruments (TI), MACOM, Qorvo, Broadcom, Marvell, NXP, STMicroelectronics, Renesas, and Skyworks. Key industry applications include 5G NR base station RF front-ends, satellite communication transponders, military radar and electronic warfare systems, MRI medical imaging systems, automotive 77GHz radar, and high-speed optical networking modules (100G/400G/800G).
