CER0032A

Overview

The CER0032A is a ceramic bandpass filter manufactured by Tusonix, a subsidiary of CTS Electronic Components. It operates at a center frequency of 1.57542 GHz with a bandwidth of 4 MHz and an insertion loss of 1.25 dB. The component utilizes surface mount technology in a Tape & Reel (TR) package. It is RoHS compliant and classified under ECCN EAR99.

Feature Summary

• Designed for precise signal filtering within the L1 GPS frequency band
• Utilizes compact ceramic construction for reliable surface mount integration
• Provides defined bandwidth characteristics to isolate specific frequency ranges

Applications

• GPS receiver front-end modules
• Satellite navigation systems
• GNSS positioning devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact package type against the manufacturer's datasheet, as sources indicate Tape & Reel but other listings may suggest Cut Tape. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status directly with Tusonix or authorized distributors before finalizing procurement specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a narrow 4 MHz bandwidth is required at 1.57542 GHz. Ensure the design accommodates the specified 1.25 dB insertion loss. Verify that the surface mount footprint matches the PCB layout constraints for the TR packaging format.

Part Context
