Introduction
The nature of applications utilizing a band pass filter, duplexer or
notch filter, necessitates the close interaction of the customer
and Skyworks’ application engineering. Our application engineers
employ the latest in simulation and circuit analysis software with
accurately defined design rules to provide rapid turnaround on
new filter designs. With our experience and design aids,
Skyworks can provide the necessary support for your application
from prototype through production. In addition to the personal
attention, Skyworks offers a computer-aided design tool, CRaFT,
to assist engineers designing filters (the latest version can be
downloaded from our web site, www.skyworksinc.com.
Skyworks is a world-class supplier of high performance ceramic
band pass filters. Specializing in band pass, notch and diplexing
applications, Skyworks can cover a frequency range from 300 MHz
to 6000 MHz with surface mount or connectorized devices.
Utilizing state of the art assembly automation, Skyworks provides
cost-effective solutions meeting high performance specifications.
Skyworks’ surface mount PCB configured filters are designed to
comply with “green” manufacturing initiatives eliminating heavy
metal elements. This configuration is designed to comply with
pending European regulations regarding the elimination of lead in
electronic assemblies. Custom assemblies can be obtained with
flat pack style SMT devices, through-hole or Sn/Pb coated PCB
surface mount designs.
The strength of Skyworks’ designs begin with our ability to
produce our own coaxial resonators from proprietary ceramic
formulations. These resonators provide a high Q element that
allows us to maintain our low filter insertion loss values. With
numerous design package styles, Skyworks offers aggressive
leadtimes on both prototype and volume applications.
Skyworks’ assembly methodology offers a wide array of designs,
from 2 mm x 2 pole – 8 mm x 10 pole band pass filters and
diplexers, to advanced band stop (notch) designs and high-pass
or low-pass filters. For typical applications and ranges of prod-
ucts, refer to the Standard Filters/Duplexers listing included in
this document. Detailed specifications, both mechanical and
electrical, are maintained for many popular designs on our
Website, or by contacting your local sales representative.
