The NCS2-282+ is a ceramic balun RF transformer designed to convert single-ended RF signals to balanced signals, operating from 625 to 2815 MHz with a 1:2 impedance ratio in a 0805 package measuring 2.0 mm × 1.25 mm × 0.84 mm. It features LTCC construction, insertion loss of up to 2 dB, amplitude unbalance up to 1.8 dB, phase unbalance up to 15°, return loss greater than 11 dB, and operates from -55°C to 125°C with a 3 W RF power rating at 25°C, derating linearly to 1 W at 125°C. The part is RoHS compliant and aqueous washable.
Mini-Circuits new RF Transformer, NCS2-282+ converts single ended, unbalanced RF signals, that propogate through systems, to balanced signals that are required for many semiconductor devices. The NCS series offers a low cost small size alternative for matching, A/D converters, System on Chips, and up/down converters. The outstanding phase and amplitude unbalance make this component a versatile building block for use in a variety of systems and sub-system designs.
