RHPF-500+

Overview

The RHPF-500+ is a surface-mount lumped LC high-pass filter manufactured by Mini-Circuits. It operates within the 500 MHz to 6500 MHz frequency band and maintains a standard 50Ω impedance. The device utilizes SMT technology for board integration and is housed in a shielded package with dimensions of 0.500 inches by 0.500 inches by 0.197 inches (CK605 case style). Designed for signal conditioning, it provides effective rejection of frequencies below the cutoff point while passing higher RF signals.

Feature Summary

• Shielded surface-mount construction for electromagnetic interference protection
• Lumped LC topology optimized for high-frequency signal integrity
• Standard 50Ω impedance matching for seamless RF chain integration

Applications

• RF signal conditioning in communication systems
• High-pass filtering in test and measurement equipment
• Interference suppression in broadband RF circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official Mini-Circuits datasheet to ensure correct packaging configuration. Confirm that the CK605 footprint matches your PCB layout requirements. Check RoHS compliance status if required by your manufacturing standards. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with your environmental specifications before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, shielded high-pass filter is needed for frequencies starting at 500 MHz. The lumped LC design offers a balance between performance and size for surface-mount applications. Consider the 50Ω impedance requirement and the specific cutoff characteristics relative to your system's noise floor and signal bandwidth needs.
