BD3150N50100AHF

Balun Overview

The BD3150N50100AHF is an RF balun transformer from the Xinger series by TTM Technologies, designed for frequencies between 3.1GHz and 5GHz. It features a 50/100 Ohm impedance configuration with a maximum insertion loss of 0.9dB and minimum return loss of 13dB. The component operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +85°C, exhibits a phase difference of 3°, and utilizes a 0404 (1010 metric) surface-mount package.

Balun Feature Summary

• Converts single-ended signals to differential signals within the specified frequency band
• Provides impedance transformation between unbalanced and balanced ports
• Supports high-frequency signal conditioning in compact surface-mount form factor

Balun Applications

• RF front-end modules requiring impedance matching
• Differential signal generation in wireless communication systems
• Signal conditioning in ultra-wideband applications

Balun Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'N' against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm the exact impedance tolerance and performance characteristics associated with this variant. Ensure compatibility with the intended PCB layout for the 0404 package dimensions. Cross-reference the RoHS status and MSL rating with current project requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Balun Selection Notes

Select this component when a 50/100 Ohm impedance ratio is required for the 3.1GHz to 5GHz frequency range. Consider the 0404 package size for space-constrained designs. Evaluate the 0.9dB insertion loss and 13dB return loss specifications against system sensitivity requirements. Confirm that the operating temperature range meets the environmental conditions of the target application.

Balun Part Context

This part belongs to the Xinger series of balun transformers manufactured by TTM Technologies. These components are engineered for RF signal processing, specifically converting between unbalanced and balanced impedances. The series offers various impedance ratios and package sizes to accommodate different circuit design needs across multiple frequency bands.

Balun Replacement Considerations

BD3150L50100AHF is a documented alternative within the same product family, offering similar electrical performance but utilizing a 0603 package instead of the 0404 footprint.
