The ZXLF-K173+ from Mini-Circuits is a Reflectionless Low Pass Filter with a passband from DC to 17 GHz and a stopband from 18 to 40 GHz. This filter has an insertion loss of less than 2.3 dB in the passband and an attenuation of over 22 dB in the stopband. It can handle an input power of up to 2 W in the passband. This filter employs a novel filter topology that absorbs and terminates stop band signals internally rather than reflecting them to the source. It minimizes the stopband reflections, thereby allowing it to be paired with sensitive devices and can be used as an alternative for isolation amplifiers or attenuators.
The ZXLF-K173+ is available in a small in-line package that measures 0.80 x 0.56 inches with 2.92 mm coaxial female and male connectors at the input and output port respectively. It is ideal for harmonic rejection, satellite, radar, and military & space applications.
