ABSTS5A2-396M02CM

Overview

The ABSTS5A2-396M02CM is a Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) filter manufactured by Abracon LLC, designed for signal conditioning in RF applications. Operating at a center frequency of 1.95 GHz with a bandwidth of 60 MHz, this component features a 50 ohm impedance and a typical insertion loss ranging from 1.6 to 2.5 dB. It utilizes an SMD/SMT termination type within a compact 1.1 x 0.9 x 0.5 mm package. The device supports a minimum operating temperature of -30°C and a maximum of +85°C, ensuring reliability across varied environmental conditions.

Feature Summary

• Surface Acoustic Wave technology for precise RF signal filtering
• Automotive-grade qualification compliant with AEC-Q200 standards
• Compact surface-mount design suitable for space-constrained PCB layouts

Applications

• Cellular communication systems
• LTE network infrastructure
• WCDMA mobile devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and RoHS compliance status directly with Abracon or authorized distributors before integration. Confirm that the AEC-Q200 qualification meets your specific automotive reliability requirements. Ensure the 5-SMD footprint matches your PCB design constraints. Cross-reference the 1.95 GHz center frequency against your system's exact channel specifications to prevent performance degradation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1.95 GHz center frequency and 60 MHz bandwidth are required for cellular or LTE applications. The AEC-Q200 qualification makes it suitable for automotive environments where high reliability is mandatory. Consider the 1.6-2.5 dB insertion loss range for link budget calculations. The small 1.1 x 0.9 mm footprint allows for dense circuit board arrangements compared to larger filter technologies.

Part Context

This part belongs to the ABSTS5A2 series of SAW filters from Abracon, which are engineered for high-frequency RF signal processing. The series includes various center frequencies tailored for different wireless standards. The ABSTS5A2-396M02CM specifically targets the 1.95 GHz band, distinguishing it from other models like the ABSTS5A2-3H4M02CM which operates at 2.14 GHz. These components are integral to modern mobile communication hardware.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 1.95 GHz frequency, 60 MHz bandwidth, and 5-SMD package dimensions. Verify equivalent insertion loss characteristics and AEC-Q200 certification if used in automotive contexts. Consult Abracon's official documentation for approved pin-compatible alternatives within the ABSTS5A2 family.
