Digitally tuned RF filters
The right information at
the right time is critical
when lives are at stake.
In an environment filled
with RF generated by
friend and foe, making
a connection and
holding it is difficult.

Increasing battlefield radio transmitter power and boosting receiver sensitivity have unwanted side
effects. Interference from nonlinearities, reflected energy down mismatched paths and RF from
nearby radios increase risk of a garbled or missed report. Or worse.
MtronPTI low insertion loss digitally tuned filters use decades of custom filter experience:
exhaustive design modelling, precision wound and tuned coils, and premium components
to help extend your reach further when it really counts.
TF010x Series Low Insertion Loss Tunable Filters are
available in PoleZero ‘MiniPole†’ compatible package
in frequencies from 30 to 1000 MHz, ~2 dB insertion loss,
+45 dBm minimum IP3, 250 tuning steps with ±1% accuracy
and 1.25 Watt power handing

Digitally tuned filters are also used in portable small cell and radar applications with
different power levels and tuning specifications. Integrating multiple tuned bands in
one package offers wider tuning range and lower cost for SWaP applications.
Custom frequency ranges, start/stop frequencies, custom bandwidths, blanking
and bypass modes are available. Requests for multiple bands or wider ranges are
welcome.
