BD2425NCSR

Balun Overview

The BD2425NCSR is an ultra-low profile balun manufactured by TTM Technologies under the Xinger brand. It operates within a frequency range of 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz and features a 50 Ohm impedance configuration. The component utilizes surface mount technology (SMD/SMT) for board mounting, housed in a compact 0404 (1010 metric) package. It exhibits an insertion loss of approximately 0.5 dB. The device supports a minimum operating temperature of -55°C and a maximum of +85°C.

Balun Feature Summary

• Ultra-low profile design suitable for space-constrained applications
• Surface mount construction for automated assembly integration
• Balanced-to-unbalanced signal conversion functionality

Balun Applications

• Wireless local area network (WLAN) systems
• Bluetooth communication modules
• Zigbee sensor networks
• Wi-Fi enabled consumer electronics

Balun Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer part number against official TTM Technologies documentation to ensure compatibility with design requirements. Confirm that the ordering suffix corresponds to the desired packaging format, such as cut tape or reel, as indicated in the product specifications. Cross-reference technical parameters including frequency range and insertion loss with the latest datasheet to validate performance expectations for the intended application environment.

Balun Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact form factor is required for 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz signal processing. The 0404 package size offers a footprint advantage over larger alternatives. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with the environmental conditions of the final assembly. The low insertion loss characteristic supports efficient signal transmission in high-frequency wireless protocols.
