MEA1608P000R

Overview

The MEA1608P000R is a three-terminal EMI filter circuit from TDK's MEA-PE series, designed for signal line protection. It features an LC (T) filter topology with a capacitance of 36 pF and a cutoff frequency of 220 MHz. The component operates within a voltage rating of 6.3 V and a current rating of 100 mA. It provides 20 dB attenuation in the 470 MHz to 2 GHz range. Packaged in a compact 0603 (1.6 mm x 0.8 mm x 0.7 mm) SMD case, it supports operating temperatures from -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides electromagnetic interference suppression using a three-terminal LC T-filter architecture
• Designed for high-density surface-mount applications with a compact 0603 footprint
• Offers stable performance across industrial temperature ranges

Applications

• Signal line filtering in mobile devices
• Data line protection in portable electronics
• EMI suppression on high-speed digital interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix TA0G against the base part number to ensure correct packaging and tape specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official TDK documentation prior to integration. Check for any lifecycle notices indicating end-of-life or not-for-new-designation status. Ensure the supplier source is authorized to guarantee component authenticity and traceability.

Selection Notes

Select this component when space-constrained designs require effective high-frequency noise reduction. The 36 pF capacitance and 220 MHz cutoff suit data lines requiring minimal signal distortion. Consider the 100 mA current rating for low-power signal paths. The 0603 package allows for automated assembly in dense PCB layouts.

Part Context

This component belongs to TDK's MEA series of EMI filter arrays. These parts are engineered for consumer electronics where board real estate is limited. The MEA-PE sub-series specifically targets signal integrity improvement in portable devices. The technology utilizes monolithic ceramic structures for consistent electrical characteristics.

Replacement Considerations

MEA1608LC220T001 is a documented alternative within the same manufacturer's portfolio. Verify that the 22 pF capacitance and 210 MHz cutoff frequency meet the target circuit requirements before substitution.
