TA0530A

Overview

The TA0530A is a surface acoustic wave (SAW) bandpass filter manufactured by TST. It operates at a center frequency of 912.1 MHz with a bandwidth of 10.2 MHz and an insertion loss of 4.1 dB. The component utilizes a 6-SMD, no-lead package measuring 3.80 mm x 3.80 mm with a maximum height of 1.43 mm. Designed for wireless applications, it provides RF signal filtering capabilities in a compact surface-mount form factor suitable for integration into communication devices.

Feature Summary

• Surface acoustic wave technology for radio frequency signal processing
• Bandpass filtering characteristics centered at 912.1 MHz
• Compact surface-mount design for automated assembly

Applications

• Wireless communication systems
• RF front-end modules
• Signal filtering in mobile devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version to confirm electrical parameters such as insertion loss and bandwidth match your design requirements. Ensure the 6-SMD no-lead package dimensions align with your PCB footprint. Confirm that the manufacturer's specifications for operating temperature and reliability standards are compatible with your final product environment before placing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a SAW filter is required for the 912.1 MHz frequency range. Consider the 10.2 MHz bandwidth and 4.1 dB insertion loss against system link budget constraints. The SMD package size must fit within the available board space. Evaluate alternative frequencies if the application requires operation outside the specified center frequency range.

Part Context

TST specializes in surface acoustic wave components, including RF filters and resonators, originally leveraging expertise from Motorola's communications division. The company produces frequency control elements for various consumer electronics and communication infrastructure. This filter represents their standard RF SAW product line designed for high-volume manufacturing and integration into modern wireless hardware.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Engineers should consult official distributor databases or contact TST directly for cross-reference information regarding equivalent RF SAW filters with similar center frequencies and package types.
