K&L filters are available in bandpass, lowpass, bandreject and highpass designs. When specifying your filter needs, be sure to supply all pertinent passband and stopband information. To achieve the best results, additional specifications such as phase, group delay, power, size, environmental, and mechanical requirements should be supplied.

Interdigital filters are entirely distributed networks consisting of an array of short circuit quarter wavelength lines.
Advantages:
The elements in the filter are lumped (i.e. concentrated over a small area). The inductors are coils of wire wound around cylindrical formers, and the capacitors are parallel plate chips or simpler portions of substrate material.
Combline filters replace the inductors in a lumped element filter with distributed inductors or lengths of transmission line leaving the capacitors lumped, although distributed capacitance is sometimes used.
Advantages:
These filters are also entirely distributed, consisting of both series and shunt transmission line sections.
Advantages:
Waveguide filters consist of half wavelength cavities separated by inductive irises.
Advantages:
Uses coaxial ceramic resonators.
