Characteristics
Remark:
Reference level for the relative attenuation
arel
of the
TFS 120
is the minimum of the pass band attenuation
amin
. The minimum of the pass band
attenuation
amin
is defined as the insertion loss
ae
. The centre frequency
fc
is the arithmetic mean value of the upper and lower frequencies at the
25 dB
filter attenuation level relative to the insertion loss
ae
. The nominal frequency
fN
is fixed on
120 MHz
without tolerance. The given values for
the relative attenuation
arel
and for the group delay ripple have to be reached at the frequencies given below also if the centre frequency
fc
is
shifted due to the temperature coefficient of frequency
Tc
f
in the operating temperature range and due to a production tolerance for the centre
frequency
fc
.
