Procurement Notes

Verify the specific insertion loss requirement against available datasheet variations, as sources cite values ranging from 0.8 dB to 2.5 dB. Confirm that the SMA termination style matches your circuit board layout requirements. Ensure the 50 Ohm impedance aligns with your system design. Check RoHS and REACH compliance status if required for your manufacturing process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a bandpass filter covering the 4 to 8 GHz range is needed. The suspended substrate technology offers distinct advantages over traditional stripline designs for certain high-frequency applications. Consider the physical case style WD3296 for mounting compatibility. Evaluate the insertion loss specifications carefully to ensure they meet your system's noise budget and signal integrity requirements.
