AEQ05467-100

Overview

The AEQ05467-100 is a surface-mount gain equalizer from the AEQ series, manufactured by Knowles Dielectric Labs. It operates within a frequency range of DC to 18 GHz and features a nominal impedance of 50 Ohms. The component utilizes SMD/SMT termination types and is housed in a compact 0302 (0605 metric) package. It is designed for board mounting and supports operation across a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. This device provides signal conditioning capabilities with low insertion loss characteristics suitable for high-frequency applications.

Feature Summary

• Provides precise gain equalization across a wide RF bandwidth
• Fully shielded construction minimizes performance variation over temperature
• Compact surface-mount footprint enables space-efficient circuit design
• High repeatability and reliability for consistent signal integrity

Applications

• Military Electronic Warfare (EW) systems
• Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) equipment
• RF signal conditioning in communication modules
• High-frequency attenuation and matching networks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation when ordering, as it may indicate variations in packaging or testing standards. Confirm that the required operating temperature range aligns with the -55°C to +125°C specification. Ensure compatibility with the 50 Ohm system impedance and 0302 package dimensions during PCB layout. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet for any updates on RoHS compliance or material declarations prior to final procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a wideband gain equalizer is required for frequencies up to 18 GHz. The AEQ series offers drop-in solutions for high-frequency attenuation needs. Consider the small size and excellent repeatability if space constraints are critical. Ensure the application demands the specific insertion loss and return loss characteristics documented in the official datasheet for optimal system performance.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AEQ series of surface-mount low-pass filters and gain equalizers. These components incorporate low-loss, high-permittivity ceramics to ensure minimal performance variation over temperature. They are fully shielded and 100% tested, offering a reliable solution for signal conditioning in demanding RF environments. The series is known for providing excellent repeatability and small form factors.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the manufacturer's substitution guide for verified alternatives. Generic equivalents may not match the specific insertion loss or frequency response characteristics. Verify pinout compatibility and package dimensions before considering cross-references.
