• Operates over a wide frequency range from 5 MHz to 8 GHz
• Utilizes a low-cost surface-mount device (SMD) package for efficient PCB integration

Balun Applications

• Wideband amplifiers
• Mixers
• 2G, 3G, 4G, LTE, WiFi, and WiMax systems

Balun Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package variant and tape/reel specifications against the official datasheet before ordering. Confirm that the 6-SMD module form factor matches your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure compatibility with your assembly process regarding surface-mount technology standards. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number MABA-011082 with authorized distributors to guarantee authenticity and traceability.

Balun Selection Notes

Select this component when a wideband 1:1 balun is required for frequencies up to 8 GHz. Consider its SMD packaging for automated assembly processes. Evaluate its suitability for multi-standard wireless applications including LTE and WiFi. Compare its performance characteristics against other MACOM baluns if narrower bandwidths or different ratios are needed.
