LFCN-1525D+

Overview

The LFCN-1525D+ is a low-pass ceramic filter manufactured by Mini-Circuits, designed for RF and microwave applications. It features a cut-off frequency of 1525 MHz and operates with a characteristic impedance of 50 Ohms. The component utilizes LTCC technology to provide effective signal filtering from DC up to the specified cut-off point. It is housed in an FV1206 case style, which corresponds to a 4-SMD, no lead package configuration suitable for surface-mount assembly.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes LTCC technology for compact surface-mount integration
• Provides low-pass filtering functionality with a defined cut-off frequency
• Designed for high-performance RF and microwave signal processing

Applications

• RF front-end filtering in communication systems
• Signal conditioning in microwave circuits
• Harmonic suppression in transmitter chains

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and test board compatibility (TB-LFCN-1525D+) when integrating this component. Confirm that the 50 Ohm impedance matches your system requirements. Ensure the FV1206 footprint aligns with your PCB design guidelines before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-pass filter with a 1525 MHz cut-off is required in a small surface-mount package. The 50 Ohm impedance makes it suitable for standard RF systems. Consider the LTCC construction for reliability in high-frequency applications where size constraints are critical.

Part Context

This part belongs to Mini-Circuits' LFCN series of ceramic filters, which are engineered for high performance across RF and microwave frequencies. The series offers various cut-off frequencies and impedance options, providing designers with flexible solutions for filtering needs in compact form factors using advanced LTCC materials.

Replacement Considerations

Consult Mini-Circuits documentation for direct substitutes within the LFCN series or other compatible low-pass filter families. Verify that any replacement maintains the 1525 MHz cut-off, 50 Ohm impedance, and FV1206 package dimensions to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility.
