AM1542S921

Overview

The AM1542S921 is a Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) filter manufactured by Anatech Electronics Inc., designed for radio frequency applications. It operates at a center frequency of 1.542 GHz with a bandwidth of 34 MHz and insertion loss of 3 dB. The component is housed in an 8-SMD, No Lead package, suitable for surface mount assembly.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes Surface Acoustic Wave technology for RF signal filtering
• Designed for high-frequency operation at 1.542 GHz
• Compact 8-SMD no-lead package for surface mount integration

Applications

• RF communication systems
• Aerospace electronics
• Defense equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and RoHS compliance status directly with Anatech Electronics Inc. or authorized distributors before procurement. Confirm that the 8-SMD no-lead package matches your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the operating temperature range meets your system specifications. Cross-reference the part number to avoid confusion with similar ceramic bandpass filters from the same manufacturer.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a SAW filter is required for the 1.542 GHz band with specific 34 MHz bandwidth constraints. Consider the 8-SMD no-lead package for space-constrained designs. Evaluate insertion loss and bandwidth against system sensitivity requirements. Compare against other Anatech models like the AM1542B1548 if different filtering technologies are preferred.

Part Context

Anatech Electronics Inc. specializes in RF and microwave components for commercial, aerospace, and defense sectors. The company produces various filters and diplexers under the AM series. This model belongs to their SAW filter lineup, distinct from their ceramic filter offerings, targeting specific frequency bands in professional electronic systems.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify compatibility with any alternative SAW filters offering identical 1.542 GHz center frequency and 34 MHz bandwidth. Ensure package dimensions match the 8-SMD no-lead form factor.
