The TCW1-362+ is a 1:1 impedance ratio ceramic RF balun transformer designed for wireless communications from 2150 to 3600 MHz. It is housed in a 0603-sized LTCC package measuring 0.06 x 0.03 x 0.02 inches, providing DC isolation between input and output for external circuit biasing. The device exhibits a maximum average insertion loss of 1.5 dB, an amplitude unbalance of 1.5 dB, and a phase unbalance of 13 degrees across its operating band. It supports a maximum RF power input of 0.5 W at +25°C and operates reliably from -55°C to +125°C.
Mini-Circuits’ TCW1-362+ is a tiny ceramic RF balun transformer with an impedance ratio of 1:1, covering a variety of wireless communications applications from 2150 to 3600 MHz. This model provides low insertion loss, low phase unbalance (relative to 180°), low amplitude unbalance. It provides DC isolation from input to output allowing it to be used for DC biasing of external circuits at the output. Fabricated using LTCC technology, the unit comes housed in a tiny, rugged ceramic package (0.06x0.03x0.02”) suitable for harsh operating environments.
