Multilayer organic low pass filters
9 November 2016
Passive Components
AVX Corporation, a leading manufacturer and supplier of passive components and interconnect solutions, has released a new series of low-profile, low pass filters based on patented and proven multilayer organic (MLO) high-density interconnect technology
The new LP series utilises a combination of high dielectric constant and low-loss materials to enable the fabrication of multilayer, stacked passive devices such as inductors and capacitors, with high volumetric efficiency, high Q and exceptional electrical performance.
Designed to support both a wide frequency range (0,4 GHz – 6,5 GHz) and several wireless standards, the filters feature an ultralow 0,55 mm height profile, and exhibit excellent isolation, low insertion loss (≥1,3 dB), low parasitics and 50 Ω impedance, making them ideal for use in a variety of wireless applications, including mobile communication devices, global positioning systems (GPS), vehicle location systems, wireless LANs, satellite receivers and instrumentation.
Featuring land grid array surface-mount packaging that’s expansion-matched to most organic PCB materials, the LP series also delivers improved reliability over standard silicon and ceramic devices, including low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) devices, which can also be used to realise multilayer stacked passives.
RoHS compliant and lead-free compatible, LP series filters are currently available in four footprints with varying lengths – 6,57 mm, 7,38 mm, 8,67 mm and 10,19 mm, ±0,10 mm) and fixed widths and heights (3,97 mm and 0,55 mm, ±0,10 mm, respectively), and are supplied with gold terminations that are compatible with automatic soldering technologies including reflow, wave soldering, vapour phase and manual. The series is rated for operating temperatures spanning -55°C to +85°C, is 100% tested for electrical parameters, and can be shipped in waffle or bulk packaging.
