Can dielectric filters be used in the millimeter-wave frequency band? Nov 21, 2025

      Dielectric filters can be applied to millimeter-wave frequency bands, but this requires suitable materials and precise manufacturing processes. Millimeter-wave frequencies impose stricter demands on dielectric loss, dimensional stability, and fabrication accuracy. High-permittivity ceramic materials (such as dielectric resonators) can maintain a high Q-factor at high frequencies, enabling good performance in the millimeter-wave range.

      At the design level, dielectric filters become much smaller at millimeter-wave frequencies, resulting in more compact structures that support system miniaturization. However, because the wavelengths are very short, even tiny manufacturing deviations can cause significant frequency shifts. Therefore, high-precision fabrication—such as advanced ceramic sintering, LTCC technology, or precision machining—is essential.

      In practical applications, dielectric filters are already used in 24 GHz, 28 GHz, and 39 GHz millimeter-wave 5G systems, as well as automotive radar operating at 24/60/77 GHz, providing signal selection, interference suppression, and front-end optimization. Overall, dielectric filters can operate reliably in millimeter-wave bands as long as material loss and manufacturing accuracy meet the required standards.

Yun Micro, as the professional manufacturer of rf passive components, can offer the cavity filters up 40GHz,which include band pass filter, low pass filter, high pass filter, band stop filter.
