RLP-320+

Overview

The RLP-320+ is a lumped LC low-pass filter manufactured by Mini-Circuits, designed for signal conditioning applications. It operates with a frequency range from 0 Hz to 320 MHz and maintains a system impedance of 50 Ohms. The component utilizes a surface-mount device (SMD/SMT) termination style, housed in an 8.89 mm x 8.89 mm x 2.54 mm package. This configuration supports efficient integration into RF circuits requiring attenuation of frequencies above the specified cutoff.

Feature Summary

• Lumped LC architecture for effective low-pass filtering
• Surface-mount design for automated assembly compatibility
• 50 Ohm impedance matching for standard RF systems

Applications

• RF signal conditioning
• Harmonic suppression
• Noise reduction in communication systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number against official Mini-Circuits documentation to ensure compliance with specifications. Confirm that the suffix '+' indicates lead-free status as per RoHS standards. Cross-reference datasheet revisions to validate current manufacturing status and availability through authorized distributors.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, surface-mount solution is required for filtering signals up to 320 MHz. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the specific 8.89 mm x 8.89 mm footprint. Verify that the 50 Ohm impedance aligns with the surrounding circuitry to minimize reflection losses.

Part Context

This component belongs to Mini-Circuits' portfolio of RF and microwave filters, which span DC to high-frequency ranges. The RLP series specifically addresses needs for cost-effective, lumped-element filtering solutions in space-constrained designs, supporting various industrial and commercial radio frequency applications.

Replacement Considerations

Consult Mini-Circuits official substitution guides for verified alternatives. Do not assume functional equivalence with other models without checking specific electrical parameters and physical dimensions.
