B038MC9S-T

Overview

The B038MC9S-T is a passive bandpass RF filter manufactured by Knowles Dielectric Labs. It operates with a center frequency of 3810 MHz and provides a bandwidth of 380 MHz. The component features an insertion loss of 4 dB and utilizes a surface-mount package configuration designated as 3-SMD, No Lead.

Feature Summary

• Surface-mount construction for automated board integration
• Bandpass filtering characteristics for signal selection

Applications

• Radio Frequency systems
• Signal conditioning circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific center frequency and bandwidth requirements against the 3810 MHz and 380 MHz specifications. Confirm that the 4 dB insertion loss aligns with system sensitivity needs. Ensure the 3-SMD No Lead package footprint matches the PCB layout design before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed center frequency near 3.81 GHz is required. The 380 MHz bandwidth defines the passband width. Consider the 4 dB insertion loss impact on signal strength. The surface-mount form factor dictates assembly method compatibility.
