Additional Details:
The B39202B5140U410 SAW filter leverages the piezoelectric effect to generate and detect acoustic waves on a piezoelectric substrate. The frequency response of the filter is determined by the design of the interdigital transducers (IDTs) patterned on the substrate, which generate and detect the surface acoustic waves. The SMT package is designed for automated assembly. The part number indicates specific frequency characteristics and filtering parameters. EPCOS (TDK) is known for manufacturing high-quality components. These filters typically operate in the hundreds of MHz range. This specific part is categorized as END-OF-LIFE, meaning it is no longer in production but may still be available from distributors or in existing equipment. The key characteristics of the filter depend on its frequency application and the related bandwidth, insertion loss, and ripple values detailed in the datasheet.
