AM500B1584

Overview

The AM500B1584 is a ceramic band pass filter manufactured by Anatech Electronics Inc. It features a center frequency of 500 MHz with a passband spanning 400 to 600 MHz. The component exhibits an insertion loss of less than 3 dB at the center frequency and ripple within the passband below 0.1 dB. Return loss over the passband exceeds 14 dB, ensuring effective signal reflection management. Designed for 50 Ohm systems, it utilizes a 14-SMD module package configuration suitable for surface mount applications.

Feature Summary

• Provides selective frequency filtering in the 400-600 MHz range
• Maintains low insertion loss for efficient signal transmission
• Ensures high return loss to minimize signal reflections

Applications

• RF front-end modules requiring specific band selection
• Communication systems operating around 500 MHz
• Signal processing circuits needing harmonic rejection

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact datasheet version from Anatech Electronics Inc. before procurement. Confirm that the 14-SMD module package matches your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure system impedance is strictly 50 Ohms to maintain specified performance metrics. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by your manufacturing standards. Validate thermal handling capabilities against your operational environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 500 MHz center frequency is required. The narrow passband characteristics make it suitable for applications demanding precise frequency isolation. Consider the 14-SMD package size during layout planning. Evaluate insertion loss specifications against system sensitivity requirements. Ensure compatibility with existing 50 Ohm circuit design parameters.

Part Context

This component belongs to the family of ceramic band pass filters produced by Anatech Electronics Inc. These devices are engineered for stable performance in radio frequency environments. The AM500B1584 specifically targets the 500 MHz region, offering defined electrical boundaries for signal conditioning. Its construction supports reliable operation in standardized RF infrastructure.

Replacement Considerations

No public substitute part numbers are confirmed for this specific model. Replacement requires matching the 500 MHz center frequency, 14-SMD package, and 50 Ohm impedance. Verify that any alternative component meets the same insertion loss and return loss specifications.
