SXLP-135+

Overview

The SXLP-135+ is a lumped LC low-pass filter manufactured by Mini-Circuits, designed for radio frequency applications. It provides a passband from DC to 135 MHz with a cutoff frequency of 155 MHz. The component operates at a characteristic impedance of 50 Ohms and utilizes an SMD surface-mount package with eight leads and no solder balls. This configuration ensures reliable integration into high-frequency circuits while maintaining signal integrity within the specified bandwidth.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes lumped LC topology for effective low-pass filtering
• Surface-mount design facilitates automated PCB assembly
• Optimized for 50 Ohm system impedance matching

Applications

• RF front-end signal conditioning
• Harmonic suppression in transmission lines
• Interference filtering in communication systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact datasheet version and manufacturer specifications before procurement. Confirm that the 8-SMD, No Lead package aligns with your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the 50 Ohm impedance matches your system design. Cross-reference the cutoff frequency against your specific application needs to guarantee proper signal attenuation characteristics.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a sharp roll-off is required above 135 MHz in a compact form factor. The lumped LC architecture offers distinct performance advantages over distributed filters at these frequencies. Consider the surface-mount profile for space-constrained designs requiring robust RF filtering capabilities without compromising board real estate.

Part Context

This part belongs to Mini-Circuits' SXLP series of lumped LC low-pass filters. The series provides various cutoff frequencies tailored for different RF bands. The SXLP-135+ specifically targets applications requiring filtering up to the VHF range, offering a standardized solution for engineers designing intermediate frequency or baseband stages.
