VHF-2700+

Overview

The Mini-Circuits VHF-2700+ is an LTCC high-pass filter designed for RF applications. It operates with a cutoff frequency of 2.65 GHz and passes signals up to 6.5 GHz, providing a bandwidth of 3.85 GHz. The component features SMA connectors and maintains a 50 Ohm impedance. It is housed in the FF704 case style, measuring 10.41mm x 36.32mm. The unit supports a minimum operating temperature of -55°C.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes Low-Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) technology for robust construction
• Provides effective attenuation of frequencies below the 2.65 GHz cutoff point
• Designed for inline module integration within RF signal paths

Applications

• RF front-end filtering in communication systems
• Interference suppression in microwave circuits
• Signal conditioning in test and measurement equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version corresponding to the ordered suffix to confirm exact electrical tolerances and connector specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing SMA interfaces and FF704 mounting requirements. Confirm that the operating environment meets the specified temperature range. Cross-reference part numbers with official Mini-Circuits documentation to avoid substitution errors.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-pass response starting at approximately 2.65 GHz is required. The LTCC construction offers stability for demanding environments. Consider the physical dimensions of the FF704 package for board layout constraints. Verify that the insertion loss and return loss characteristics meet system requirements within the 2.65 GHz to 6.5 GHz passband.

Part Context

This component belongs to the VHF-2700+ series of high-pass filters manufactured by Mini-Circuits. The series utilizes LTCC technology to provide reliable performance in RF and microwave applications. These filters are engineered to block lower frequencies while allowing higher frequency signals to pass with minimal distortion.
