BRN6044-0010S

Balun Overview

The BRN6044-0010S is a surface mount balun transformer manufactured by Bourns Inc. It operates within a frequency range of 2.2 MHz to 400 MHz. The component utilizes a 6-SMD (5 Leads) gull wing package configuration. It is designed for RF signal conversion applications requiring balanced-to-unbalanced impedance transformation. The device complies with lead-free and RoHS environmental standards, ensuring suitability for modern electronic manufacturing processes.

Balun Feature Summary

• Provides balanced-to-unbalanced signal conversion across a wide RF frequency spectrum
• Utilizes a compact surface mount gull wing package for automated assembly integration

Balun Applications

• RF circuit impedance matching
• Balanced-to-unbalanced signal conversion in communication systems
• RF front-end module integration

Balun Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer datasheet for electrical characteristics and mechanical dimensions. Confirm that the required frequency range aligns with system specifications. Check for end-of-life status as availability may be limited. Ensure compliance with environmental regulations relevant to the target market. Validate package compatibility with existing PCB footprint designs before procurement.

Balun Selection Notes

Select this component when a wideband RF balun is required for frequencies between 2.2 MHz and 400 MHz. Consider the 6-SMD gull wing package for surface mount assembly requirements. Evaluate the trade-off between bandwidth and size constraints. Ensure the application does not require automotive qualification unless explicitly verified. Compare against alternative baluns if higher frequency performance is needed beyond 400 MHz.
