FAQ

Fragen: What frequency at edge?

Antworten: 330-350MHz. We also offer customization options. To avoid fluctuations caused by temperature changes, the frequency range is occasionally broadened.

Frage: What will be the rejection at ±12 MHz from the center frequency of the custom helical filter?

Antworten: According to software simulation results, the rejection (suppression) at ±12 MHz offset is approximately 10 dB zu 12 dB.

Frage: What is the maximum power handling capacity of the helical filter?

Antworten: The standard helical filter can handle up to 5 W CW (continuous wave) Leistung. This rating meets the requirements of most COFDM and FPV video transmission systems.

Frage: Can the helical filter support higher power levels, wie zum Beispiel 10 W?

Antworten: Ja. EIN custom high-power version ist auf Anfrage erhältlich. With larger housing, enhanced thermal design, or silver-plated conductors, the filter can handle up to 10 W CW.

Frage: How should I choose between 5 W and 10 W versions?

Antworten: If your transmitter output power is below 5 W, the standard model is sufficient. For transmitters with output power close to or above 5 W, we recommend choosing the 10 W custom version for safe operation and longer lifespan.

Frage: Does higher power handling affect the filter’s performance?

Antworten: No significant difference in filtering characteristics. aber, high-power filters are slightly larger in size and may have lower insertion loss due to improved conductor quality.

Frage: Can you customize the filter according to my system power and frequency?

Antworten: Ja, beide Mittenfrequenz und power handling kann individuell angepasst werden. Please provide your required frequency band and output power so we can design a suitable model.

Frage: What is the rejection at 377 MHz and insertion loss at 340 MHz?

Antworten: Please refer to the test results below for detailed measurement data.

Frage: Loss is 2.2 db at 340 mhz right?

Antworten: If you want to minimize insertion loss, the suppression will worsen. The filter has been designed with an additional cavity, which slightly increases the insertion loss but improves the out-of-band rejection performance.
