Thin-film bandpass filters for RF and microwave uses like military radio and radar offered by KYOCERA AVX

Feb. 4, 2025
The KYOCERA AVX BP1206 and BP2816 series offer low insertion loss, steep attenuation, sharp roll-off, low-noise, and high temperature stability.

FOUNTAIN INN, S.C. – KYOCERA AVX Components Corp. in Fountain Inn, S.C., is introducing the BP1206 and BP2816 series thin-film bandpass filters for military and handheld radios, radar systems, wireless networking, and test equipment.

Designed to satisfy demand for small, high-power bandpass filters in RF and microwave applications, the BP1206 and BP2816 series bandpass filters use multilayer integrated thin-film (ITF) technology to deliver RF performance with low insertion loss, steep attenuation, sharp roll-off, low-noise, and high temperature stability.

Both series also enable the quick and easy adjustment of RF parameters and feature ruggedly constructed compact low-profile cases equipped with lead-free solder-coated-nickel land grid array (LGA) terminations. These devices are compatible with automated assembly processes such as reflow, wave, and vapor phase soldering.

The BP1206 and BP2816 series thin-film bandpass filters exhibit 8 Watts of continuous power handling and 50 Ohms characteristic impedance. They are rated for operating temperatures from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius.

The BP1206 series features a miniature 1206 case, and supports frequencies from 1,250 to 6,100 MHz with in-band performance, and exhibit out-of-band rejection values spanning -25 to -40 decibels.

The BP2816 series supports frequencies from 240 to 1,260 MHz. They also exhibit in-band performance and out-of-band rejection values from -20 to -45dB.

The BP1206 and BP2816 series thin-film bandpass filters are manufactured in ISO-9001 facilities and 100% tested for electrical parameters and visual and mechanical characteristics.
