In many communication transceiver designs, an unbalanced single-ended signal must be converted to a balanced differential signal. This task is often considered routine, and a flux-coupled transformer ...

Balun bandpass filters represent a critical advancement in radio frequency (RF) circuit design, integrating the dual functions of balanced-to-unbalanced conversion and frequency selection. These ...

Even before entering the mystical realms of UHF design, radio frequency (RF) circuits come with a whole range of fun design aspects as well. A case in point can be found in transmission line ...

Introduced as the industry's smallest, the AMB1608C series multi-layer chip baluns for WiMAX and Mobile WiMAX designs measure 1.6 mm x 0.8 mm x 0.6 mm. The components specify a low insertion loss of 0 ...

Sheffield, UK — Jennic has introduced a ZigBee- and IEEE 802.15.4-node reference design for its JN5139 wireless microcontroller. The design reduces the bill of materials (BOM) cost of modules for ...

The first in a family of second-generation FET quad mixers, the PE4122 integrates both RF and LO balun networks on a single chip. This highly integrated device features an input IP3 of greater than 30 ...
