FOUNTAIN INN, SC --(Marketwired - February 06, 2017) - AVX Corporation (
"Our new HF Series MLO high pass filters allow wireless design engineers to achieve lower insertion loss, better attenuation, and better heat dissipation than designs that utilize LTCC products. MLO filters integrate inductors and capacitors into a small, low profile package, thereby eliminating the need to construct filters using discrete capacitors and inductors. This improves performance and reliability, reduces the required board placement space, and removes the need for tuning using individual capacitors and inductors," said Edgardo Menendez, worldwide business manager of RF/Microwave Ceramics at AVX. "These qualities, combined with the series' extremely low profile, are critical to enabling the development of the smaller, more capable wireless electronics that the market demands."
RoHS compliant and lead-free, HF Series MLO high pass filters are currently available in five case sizes with varying lengths (6.579mm ±0.05mm, and 7.785mm, 8.674mm, and 10.198mm, ±0.254mm) and fixed widths and heights (3.97mm and 0.559mm, ±0.254mm, respectively), and are supplied with gold terminations that are compatible with automatic soldering technologies including: reflow, wave soldering, vapor 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. Lead-time for the series is currently stock to 14 weeks.
