Balun Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current global part numbering change documentation to ensure correct functional identification. Confirm that the requested variant matches the required 1:2 transformation ratio and 0805 package dimensions before finalizing procurement orders.

Balun Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1:2 impedance transformation is required for 5.4 GHz Wi-Fi applications. Ensure the design accommodates the 0805 footprint and validates performance within the specified 4.9 GHz to 5.9 GHz operational bandwidth using appropriate evaluation boards.

Balun Part Context

This balun belongs to Johanson Technology's BL series of integrated passive components. These devices replace discrete LC networks with monolithic solutions, offering improved size reduction and consistent electrical performance for high-frequency wireless communication systems requiring precise impedance matching.

Balun Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with Johanson Technology's updated global part numbering system to identify equivalent or upgraded variants. Verify compatibility with existing PCB layouts and impedance requirements before substituting.
