Multilayer Organic (MLO®)
High Pass Filters
The MLO®High Pass Filters are low profile passive devices with best in class performance based
on AVX’s patented multilayer organic high density interconnect technology. The MLO®High pass
filters utilize high dielectric constant and low loss materials to realize high Q passive printed
elements, such as inductors and capacitors, in a multilayer stack. This results in a high
performance High Pass Filter design. MLO®High Pass Filters can support both a variety of
frequency bands and multiple wireless standards, and are less than 1.0mm in thickness. All filters
are expansion matched to most organic PCB materials, thereby resulting in improved reliability
over standard silicon and ceramic devices.

Blue pads denote I/O pads, gray pads denote ground pads

Dimensions in inches (mm).

Line width should be designed to match 50ohm characteristic impedance, depending on PCB material and thickness.

Grounding is solid copper under solder mask, with solder mask defined pads for ground openings. I/O pads are not shorted to ground.

Blue pads denote I/O pads, gray pads denote ground pads.

AUTOMATED SMT ASSEMBLY

SMT REFLOW PROFILE

The following section describes the guidelines for automated

SMT assembly of MLO®RF devices which are typically Land

Grid Array (LGA) packages or side termination SMT pacages.

Control of solder and solder paste volume is critical for

surface mount assembly of MLO®RF devices onto the PCB.

Stencil thickness and aperture openings should be adjusted

according to the optimal solder volume. The following are

general recommendations for SMT mounting of MLO®

devices onto the PCB.

Common IR or convection reflow SMT processes shall be

used for the assembly. Standard SMT reflow profiles, for

eutectic and Pb free solders, can be used to surface mount

the MLO®devices onto the PCB. In all cases, a temperature

gradient of 3°C/sec, or less, should be maintained to prevent

warpage of the package and to ensure that all joints reflow

properly. Additional soak time and slower preheating time

may be required to improve the out-gassing of solder paste.

In addition, the reflow profile depends on the PCB density

and the type of solder paste used. Standard no-clean solder

paste is generally recommended. If another type of flux is

used, complete removal of flux residual may be necessary.

Example of a typical lead free reflow profile is shown below.
