Ceramic Balun RF Transformer TCW1-33+ 50 2300 to 3000 MHz 1:1 Ratio The Big Deal Tiny size, 0603 CASE STYLE: JC0603C Low unbalance, 0.2 dB, 3 Low insertion loss, 1.0 dB Low cost Product Overview Mini-Circuits TCW1-33+ is a tiny ceramic RF balun transformer with an impedance ratio of 1:1, covering a variety of wireless communications applications from 2300 to 3000 MHz. This model provides low inser- tion loss, low phase unbalance (relative to 180), low amplitude unbalance, and RF input power handling up to 2W. It provides DC isolation from input to output allowing it to be used for DC biasing of external circuits at the output. Fabricated using LTCC technology, the unit comes housed in a tiny, rugged ceram- ic package (0.06 x 0.03 x 0.02) suitable for harsh operating environments. Key Features Feature Advantages Low insertion loss, 1.0 dB Enables excellent signal power transmission from input to output. Low unbalance can improve a systems electromagnetic compatibility by rejecting unwanted Low unbalance, 0.2 dB, 3 common-mode noise. 2W power handling Supports a wide range of power requirements DC Isolated from input to output Can be used to DC bias external circuits at the output. Tiny size, 0603 Accommodates tight space requirements for dense PCB layouts. LTCC process enables tiny size and low cost, suitable for high-volume production. Rugged ceramic LTCC construction package provides excellent reliability in harsh operating environments. Notes A.
