AFC10.7MS-A

Overview

The AFC10.7MS-A is a ceramic filter manufactured by Abracon LLC, designed for low-pass applications at a center frequency of 10.7 MHz. It features a 3-SIP package with a 2.50 mm pitch and an impedance of 330 Ohms. The component measures 7.00 mm in length and 4.00 mm in width. This leaded device is constructed from ceramic materials to provide signal filtering capabilities within specified electronic circuits.

Feature Summary

• Low-pass ceramic filter construction
• Leaded SIP package design
• Fixed 10.7 MHz center frequency operation

Applications

• Intermediate frequency (IF) filtering in radio receivers
• Signal processing in communication equipment
• Audio or video demodulation circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'A' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm pinout and electrical tolerances. Ensure the 330 Ohm impedance matches the system requirements. Check for obsolete status as similar models like AFC10.7MA25-A are marked obsolete. Confirm RoHS compliance details directly from the official documentation before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 10.7 MHz low-pass response is required in a compact SIP form factor. The 330 Ohm impedance must align with the source and load impedances of the circuit. Consider the 2.50 mm pitch for PCB layout compatibility. Verify that the leaded package suits the assembly process compared to surface-mount alternatives.

Part Context

This part belongs to Abracon's line of ceramic filters, which are passive components used for frequency selection. These filters typically replace bulkier crystal or LC filters in cost-sensitive consumer electronics. The 10.7 MHz frequency is standard for FM radio intermediate frequencies, making these components common in broadcast reception hardware.

Replacement Considerations

The AFC10.7MS30-A is listed as obsolete. The AFC10.7MA25-A is also marked obsolete. No active direct substitutes are confirmed in the provided data. Verify if newer series replacements exist in the official Abracon catalog.
