This episode explores the connectivity trends and applications in today's manufacturing sector, focusing on RF filters and their performance aspects for different applications thanks to our expert Mike Schweyer, Product Line Manager RF Filters.

The filter topology depends on the electrical performance of the filter, such as the center frequency, the bandwidth, and the insertion loss, as well as the application requirements, such as the size, weight, power, cost, and reliability. Also, higher frequencies generally provide more data capabilities but can only be transmitted over shorter distances, while lower frequencies can transmit over longer distances but have lower data rates.
