2-13-1DL

Overview

The Bourns Inc. 2-13-1DL is a balanced-to-unbalanced transformer (balun) designed for RF signal conversion and impedance matching applications. It operates within a frequency range of 300 kHz to 120 MHz and features a 1:13 turns ratio. The component is housed in a 6-pin DIP package, providing a compact form factor suitable for integration into various electronic circuits requiring balanced line interfacing.

Feature Summary

• Provides balanced-to-unbalanced signal conversion
• Supports impedance transformation functions
• Operates across a wide frequency spectrum

Applications

• Sub-GHz IoT RF front ends
• RF signal processing circuits
• Impedance matching networks

Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status prior to procurement as the component may contain lead. Confirm that the 6DIP package dimensions align with PCB layout requirements. Ensure the operating frequency range meets specific design constraints. Validate manufacturer authenticity through authorized channels to guarantee component integrity.

Selection Notes

Select this balun when a 1:13 ratio is required for balanced line interfacing within the specified frequency band. Consider the 6-pin DIP footprint for assembly compatibility. Evaluate thermal and electrical performance against application demands. Compare alternative LTCC baluns if size or specific impedance values differ from project specifications.

Part Context

This component belongs to Bourns' magnetic products portfolio, specifically focusing on RF transformers. It complements other LTCC band pass filters and diplexers used in sub-GHz and IoT designs. The product line emphasizes compact solutions for signal conversion and filtering in modern wireless communication systems.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official substitution lists for compatible baluns with similar ratios and frequency ranges. Verify pinout compatibility before replacing with equivalent components from other manufacturers.
