A lot depends on the frequency you are operating at. A low frequency filter may 
use electrolytic caps, for example, and there is no way you will ever get 180°C 
electrolytics! Most of the common non-electrolytic capacitor dielectrics won't 
have a hope of operating at this temperature either. Maybe if you clarify the 
type and frequency of the filter...
 
You are also at or above the melting point of normal tin-lead solder, so that 
is going to make things just a tad difficult.

Hi all,

I'm designing a filter that has to live and work with an Ambient temp of 180 C. 
Does anyone have suggestions as to component vendors that I could contact for 
parts?

Thanks,

Derek Walton.
