HPJC-252R+

Overview

The HPJC-252R+ is a high-pass LTCC RF filter designed for the 2400 to 2500 MHz passband. It features a center frequency of 2.45 GHz and a bandwidth of 100 MHz. The component exhibits an insertion loss of 1.4 dB and operates with a 50 Ohm impedance. Packaged in a compact 0603 (1608 Metric) surface-mount case style, it is suitable for board mounting applications requiring precise signal filtering in wireless communication systems.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes Low-Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) technology for robust construction
• Provides high-pass filtering characteristics within the specified microwave frequency range
• Designed for surface-mount integration into printed circuit boards

Applications

• Wireless communication systems operating at 2.45 GHz
• RF signal conditioning in industrial control equipment
• Medical electronic devices requiring filtered RF inputs

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision and electrical test data directly from Mini-Circuits or authorized distributors before integration. Confirm that the 0603 footprint matches your PCB layout constraints. Ensure the supplier provides traceability documentation consistent with ISO quality standards. Cross-reference the part number suffix to confirm no functional variations exist compared to the standard specification.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-pass response is required specifically between 2400 and 2500 MHz. The 0603 package size offers space efficiency for dense layouts. Consider the 1.4 dB insertion loss impact on system gain budgets. Verify compatibility with 50 Ohm system impedance to minimize reflection losses. Evaluate thermal performance against the specified operating temperature range for the target environment.

Part Context
