    To meet the requirements of high performance and miniaturization for intermediate frequency(IF)filters in radio frequency(RF)receivers while considering passive intermodulation(PIM)interference from passive components,an LC high-performance filter was designed and implemented based on an eighth-order elliptic function with a nominal frequency of 81 MHz. The filter measured 14 × 5.5 ×5 mm3,achieving a relative bandwidth(BW)of approximately 26.84%,a shape factor(BW40dB/BW3dB)of less than 1.78,a stopband rejection of up to 60 dBc at a far-end frequency of 1 GHz,a voltage standing wave ratio of ≤1.28,a minimum in-band insertion loss of 3.2 dB,an in-band phase consistency within the same batch of ≤ ±6°,and a PIM power level of -77 dBm. The filter design exhibited excellent agreement with the specifications,showing significant practical utility.
