ZX75LP-288-S+

Overview

The ZX75LP-288-S+ is a lumped LC low pass filter manufactured by Mini-Circuits, designed for signal conditioning applications. It operates within a frequency range of DC to 288 MHz and features a nominal impedance of 50 Ohms. The component utilizes SMA connectors for termination and is housed in the KE1467 case style. It supports an average input power of 0.5 Watts and functions reliably within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Lumped LC architecture providing effective low-pass filtering characteristics
• SMA connectorized package for direct integration into RF systems
• Designed for stable performance across wide industrial temperature ranges

Applications

• RF signal conditioning circuits
• Harmonic suppression in communication systems
• Test and measurement equipment front ends

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the ZX75LP-288-S+ to confirm exact insertion loss and return loss specifications required for your design. Ensure that the SMA connector polarity and mating requirements align with your system interface. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 288 MHz cutoff frequency is required for 50 Ohm systems. The KE1467 connectorized form factor simplifies prototyping and testing compared to surface-mount alternatives. Consider the 0.5 Watt power handling capability relative to your signal levels to ensure reliable operation without thermal degradation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the ZX75LP series from Mini-Circuits, which offers various cutoff frequencies for low-pass filtering needs. The series is known for its compact size and robust construction suitable for demanding RF environments. The ZX75LP-288-S+ specifically targets applications requiring attenuation above 288 MHz while maintaining passband integrity.

Replacement Considerations

Consult Mini-Circuits official substitution guides for equivalent parts with similar cutoff frequencies and impedance values. Verify mechanical compatibility of the KE1467 package if replacing with other connectorized filters.
