SXLP-25+

Overview

The SXLP-25+ is a lumped LC low pass filter manufactured by Mini-Circuits, designed for signal conditioning applications. It operates over a frequency range from DC to 25 MHz with a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms. The component utilizes surface-mount technology (SMT) for board integration and supports an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Storage capabilities extend from -55°C to +100°C. This device provides effective attenuation of high-frequency signals while maintaining signal integrity within the specified passband.

Feature Summary

• Lumped LC architecture for compact surface-mount implementation
• Low pass filtering capability up to 25 MHz cutoff
• 50 ohm impedance matching for standard RF systems
• Wide thermal stability for diverse environmental conditions

Applications

• RF signal conditioning circuits
• IF stage filtering in communication systems
• High-frequency noise suppression
• Signal path protection in test equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and RoHS compliance status directly with Mini-Circuits or authorized distributors before procurement. Confirm that the surface-mount package dimensions align with your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure that the thermal operating limits meet your system's environmental specifications. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number to avoid confusion with similar series components.

Selection Notes

Choose the SXLP-25+ when a low-pass response is required below 25 MHz in a 50-ohm system. Consider this component for space-constrained designs due to its SMT format. Evaluate the insertion loss and stopband rejection characteristics against your specific signal integrity needs. Compare performance metrics with higher cutoff frequency variants if broader bandwidth is anticipated.

Part Context

This component belongs to the SXLP series of lumped LC low pass filters produced by Mini-Circuits. The series offers various cutoff frequencies tailored for different RF and IF applications. These filters are engineered for consistent performance across wide temperature ranges. The SXLP-25+ specifically targets applications requiring sharp attenuation above 25 MHz.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Mini-Circuits SXLP series filters with comparable cutoff frequencies, such as SXLP-13+ or SXLP-400+, depending on the required bandwidth. Verify electrical parameters and physical footprint compatibility before substitution. Consult official cross-reference guides for validated alternatives.
