NEW - 246 MHz & 400 MHz GSM IF SAW Filters in 5 x 5 LCC

Vectron International has introduced new GSM 246 MHz and 400 MHz IF SAW
filters in a 5mm x 5mm package. The TFS246 and TFS400 are hermetically sealed
and are substantially smaller than other available products.
These low cost and small size quartz resonator filters feature high stopband
rejection, low insertion attenuation, low temperature coefficient and low
group delay ripple. They are ideally suited for handsets for GSM applications
in the cellular market. Other frequencies are also available.
The TFS246 and TFS400 are part of a series of IF SAW filters manufactured at
VI's Telefilter facility located in Teltow, Germany. Additional products
include various types of Low - Loss and Precision SAW filters for wireless
and wireline applications including TDMA, CDMA, WLL and WLAN.
The Vectron International group designs, manufactures and markets frequency generation and
control products using the very latest techniques in both standard crystal and surface acoustic
wave (SAW) based designs from DC to microwave frequencies. Products include crystals and crystal
oscillators; SAW filters and components; and clock and data recovery products used in
telecommunication and data communication applications.
