RBP-130+

Overview

The RBP-130+ is a lumped LC bandpass filter manufactured by Mini-Circuits, designed for radio frequency applications. It operates within a passband of 95 to 180 MHz with a center frequency of 130 MHz and an 85 MHz bandwidth. The component features a 50Ω impedance and utilizes an SMD package without leads (Case Style GP731). It supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to 85°C and a storage temperature up to 100°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides effective EMI and RFI suppression through bandpass filtering characteristics
• Utilizes a compact surface-mount design suitable for automated PCB assembly
• Engineered for stable performance across specified industrial temperature ranges

Applications

• EMI/RFI suppression circuits
• Power line filtering systems
• Radio frequency signal conditioning

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and ordering suffixes when sourcing. Confirm that the required RF power handling and insertion loss specifications meet your circuit requirements before finalizing procurement. Ensure compatibility with the recommended PCB layout guidelines provided in the official documentation to maintain signal integrity.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a fixed 130 MHz center frequency with a wide 85 MHz bandwidth. Consider the 50Ω system impedance and the specific SMD footprint dimensions during the layout phase. Evaluate thermal constraints against the -40°C to 85°C operating range to ensure reliability in the target environment.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Mini-Circuits RBP series of lumped element filters. These components are engineered for cost-effective RF filtering solutions where discrete LC topologies offer advantages over distributed elements. The series provides standardized impedance matching and compact form factors for integration into various electronic assemblies.

Replacement Considerations

Consult Mini-Circuits official substitution guides for verified alternatives. Ensure any substitute maintains the 95-180 MHz passband and 50Ω impedance. Verify physical footprint compatibility with the GP731 case style if board space is constrained.
