C1,C2 can be left
Addition to that some 0
jumpers have been used.
The stray capacitance of the PCB is comparable to the theoretical values of the shunt capacitors. So
they can be left. The matching on the PCB does slightly differ from the theoretical matching. The
reason for that are parasitics of the PCB.
But if the parasitics on the customer board (mentioned parasitics, additional parasitics of active parts)
are different to this PCB the matching elements have to be slightly adjusted. Both in line and shunt
elements change both passband tilt and passband ripple. But
- the in line coils mainly influences the pass band tilt
- the shunt capacitors mainly influences the pass band ripple
an increase of the capacity value will decrease the passband ripple and will change a flat
characteristic to a round one
