Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Tusonix, a subsidiary of CTS Electronic Components, when sourcing this component. Confirm the specific part number CER0357C matches the required 91 MHz band-pass specification. Ensure compliance with RoHS and lead-free requirements if applicable to your assembly process. Cross-reference datasheet details for mechanical dimensions and electrical characteristics before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select the CER0357C when a compact, high-precision ceramic filter is required for 91 MHz applications. Consider its monoblock form factor and two-pad surface-mount footprint for space-constrained designs. Evaluate the 1.5 dB insertion loss against system sensitivity requirements. Verify compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment due to the small 10.00 x 4.00 mm package size.

Part Context

This component belongs to the CER0357 series of ceramic filters produced by Tusonix/CTS. These filters are engineered for specific frequency bands, offering superior stability compared to LC alternatives. The monoblock technology integrates multiple resonant elements into a single ceramic body, reducing parasitic effects and improving overall circuit reliability in demanding RF environments.

Replacement Considerations
