ZVBP-16R3G-S+

Overview

The ZVBP-16R3G-S+ is a cavity band pass filter from Mini-Circuits designed for signal conditioning applications. It operates within a frequency range of 15.9 to 16.7 GHz with a center frequency of 16.3 GHz and an 800 MHz bandwidth. The component features typical insertion loss of 0.5 dB, return loss of 21 dB, and stopband rejection between 40 to 100 dB up to 28 GHz. It utilizes SMA connectors and maintains a 50 Ohm impedance.

Feature Summary

• Cavity construction providing high stability and low insertion loss
• Wide stopband rejection extending up to 28 GHz
• SMA connector interface for standard integration

Applications

• Radio frequency signal conditioning
• Microwave communication systems
• Test and measurement equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'S+' against official Mini-Circuits documentation to confirm connector type and termination details. Ensure compatibility with 50 Ohm system impedance. Check lead times as they may vary by supplier. Confirm package dimensions match design constraints before ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a narrow bandpass response around 16.3 GHz is required. The cavity design offers superior performance compared to planar filters in terms of power handling and thermal stability. Verify that the SMA interface meets board layout requirements.

Part Context

This component belongs to the ZVBP series of cavity band pass filters from Mini-Circuits. These filters are engineered for high-performance RF applications requiring precise frequency selection and strong out-of-band rejection capabilities in the microwave spectrum.

Replacement Considerations

Consult Mini-Circuits official substitution guides for direct equivalents. Cross-reference specifications such as center frequency, bandwidth, and connector type to ensure functional compatibility with existing designs.
