B ECO-020598 XLF-172H MCL NY 240117 50Ω DC to 2000 MHz PRODUCT OVERVIEW Mini-Circuits’ XLF-172H+ three-section reflectionless filter employs a novel filter topology which absorbs and terminates stop band signals internally rather than reflecting them back to the source. This new capability enables unique applications for filter circuits beyond those suited to traditional approaches. Traditional filters are reflective in the stop band, sending signals back to the source at 100% of the power level. These reflections interact with neighboring components and often result in inter- modulation and other interferences. Reflectionless filters eliminate stop band reflections, allowing them to be paired with sensitive devices and used in applications that otherwise require circuits such as isolation amplifiers or attenuators. APPLICATIONS y Cellular, PCS y GPS y Radio astronomy y Telemetry THE BIG DEAL y Match to 50Ω in the stop band, eliminates undesired reflections y Cascadable y Excellent stopband rejection, 47 dB typ. y Temperature stable, up to +105°C y Small size, 4 x 4 mm y Protected by US Patents 8,392,495; 9,705,467, additional patent pending y Protected by China Patent 201080014266.1 y Protected by Taiwan Patent I581494 CASE STYLE: DG1847 Generic photo used for illustration purposes only Features Advantages Reflectionless Technology Reflectionless filters absorb unwanted signals, preventing reflections back to the source. This reduces gen- eration of additional unwanted signals without the need for extra components like attenuators, improving system dynamic range and saving board space. 50Ω Match in Stopband Reflectionless filters maintain good impedance matching in the stopband, allowing for integration with high gain, wideband amplifiers without the risk of creating out-of-band instabilities. Excellent RF Performance Repeatability Fabricated on a GaAs process, X-series filters are inherently repeatable for large-volume production. Excellent Stability over temperature With ±0.3 dB variation over temperature, is ideal for use in wide temperature range applications without the need for additional temperature compensation. Excellent Power Handling in a Compact Package High power handling extends the usability of these filters to the transmit path for inter-stage filtering. KEY FEATURES www.minicircuits.com P.O.
