2500BL14M0100001T

Overview

The 2500BL14M0100001T is a surface-mount signal conditioning component manufactured by Johanson Technology Inc. It functions as an RF balun designed for operation within the 2.3 GHz to 2.7 GHz frequency range, centered at 2.5 GHz. The device provides impedance transformation between unbalanced and balanced ports with values of 50 Ohms and 100 Ohms respectively. It features a phase difference of 180 degrees plus or minus 15 degrees. Key electrical specifications include a maximum insertion loss of 1.2 dB and a minimum return loss of 9.5 dB. The component is housed in a compact 0603 (1608 metric) package suitable for board mount applications.
