bandpass filter fabricated using SMT technology. This bandpass filter covers from
700-1200
MHz. This filter is built with high Q capacitors and air-coil inductors for superior performance. This filter is developed
for square kilometer array telescope systems for radio astronomy. It has repeatable performance across lots and con-
sistent performance across temperature.
Key Features
Feature
Low insertion loss
Advantages
Can be used in high performance applications such as radio astronomy.
Good rejection
This enables the filter to attenuate spurious signals and reject harmonics for broad frequency band.
Shielded case
Reduced interference with and from the surrounding components.
