This one has a really good performance over a large frequency range. But as you can see in the data sheet it's a T filter which is best suited for low source and load impedances like power lines and doesn't work well for data lines, for audio this might work though. > They're 0603, and the data sheet promises truly magic characteristics, > including zero insertion loss at DC.

Those integrated filters are mostly optimized for one specific purpose and they do work very well there but.

I think we need to block those frequencies where the FR is exposed to high power RF, (self generated or external). The highest field density we'll probably get from our own RF which is generated by BT, WLAN, GSM, internal clocks etc., so i guess everything between a couple hundred MHz to at least 3GHz. _______________________________________________ gta02-core mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/gta02-core
