AM3600B1065

Overview

The AM3600B1065 is a ceramic band pass filter manufactured by Anatech Electronics Inc. It operates with a center frequency of 3600 MHz and provides a bandwidth of 40 MHz, covering the range from 3580 to 3620 MHz. The component features a 50 Ohm impedance and is housed in a 14-SMD module package. Official documentation indicates an insertion loss specification of less than 8.0 dB. Additional performance metrics include a stopband attenuation greater than 45 dB at 3670 MHz.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes ceramic construction for stable RF filtering performance
• Designed as a band pass filter with defined center frequency and bandwidth
• Integrated into a surface mount device (SMD) module format

Applications

• RF signal processing systems requiring 3.6 GHz filtering
• Wireless communication infrastructure components
• Test and measurement equipment operating in the C-band spectrum

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version when ordering, as specifications such as insertion loss and stopband attenuation may vary between production batches or document revisions. Confirm that the 14-SMD package dimensions align with your PCB layout requirements. Ensure compatibility with 50 Ohm system impedance to maintain signal integrity. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number directly with Anatech Electronics Inc. to avoid counterfeit components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 40 MHz bandwidth at 3.6 GHz is required. The ceramic technology offers thermal stability suitable for industrial environments. Consider the SMD form factor for automated assembly processes. Evaluate the insertion loss specification against system noise budget requirements before integration into the final design.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Anatech Electronics Inc. family of ceramic filters. These devices are engineered for high-frequency applications where size and performance are critical. The AM series typically utilizes resonant ceramic materials to achieve sharp roll-off characteristics. This specific model targets the 3.6 GHz frequency range, distinguishing it from other models in the lineup that operate at different center frequencies.

Replacement Considerations

No public substitute part numbers are confirmed for this specific model. Direct replacement requires matching the 3600 MHz center frequency, 40 MHz bandwidth, 50 Ohm impedance, and 14-SMD package footprint. Verify electrical parameters against the original datasheet to ensure functional equivalence.
