Characteristics
Remark:
Reference level for the relative attenuation arel of the TFS 238A is the insertion loss. 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 3 dB filter attenuation level
relative to the insertion loss ae. The temperature coefficient of frequency Tcf is valid both for the reference frequency fc and the frequency response
of the filter in the operating temperature range.

*) The terminating impedances depend on parasitics and q-values of matching elements and the board used, and are to be understood as
reference values only. Should there be additional questions do not hesitate to ask for an application note or contact our design team.
**) This power level is allowed for short term operation (10% of life time) only, the max. input power for continuous operation is 15 dBm
