FMBL1002

Balun Overview

The FMBL1002 is a balun manufactured by Fairview Microwave, designed for signal conversion between balanced and unbalanced lines. It operates within a frequency range of 20 MHz to 1000 MHz. The component provides a phase shift of 180 degrees. Amplitude balance is specified at ±0.45 dB, while phase balance is maintained within ±6 degrees.

Balun Feature Summary

• Provides 180-degree phase shift for balanced-to-unbalanced signal conversion
• Maintains amplitude balance within ±0.45 dB across the operating band
• Ensures phase balance accuracy of ±6 degrees

Balun Applications

• RF signal processing circuits requiring balanced-to-unbalanced transformation
• Antenna feed systems operating in the 20 MHz to 1 GHz range
• Test and measurement equipment utilizing wideband balun functions

Balun Procurement Notes

Verify the specific electrical performance parameters against the official Fairview Microwave datasheet prior to integration. Confirm that the amplitude and phase balance specifications meet the system requirements for the intended frequency range. Ensure compatibility with existing circuit impedance and connector types.

Balun Selection Notes

Select this component when a wideband balun covering 20 MHz to 1000 MHz is required. Consider the ±0.45 dB amplitude balance and ±6 degree phase balance limits for precision applications. Evaluate the physical form factor and mounting requirements against the design constraints of the target assembly.

Balun Part Context

The FMBL1002 belongs to the RF passive components category from Fairview Microwave. It serves as a specialized balun for converting signals between balanced and unbalanced states. The device supports frequencies up to 1000 MHz, distinguishing it from narrowband alternatives.
