Pulse, a Technitrol Company, has introduced the C2139NL (patent pending) RF balun transformer for radio frequency (RF) applications ranging from 5 to 1000 megahertz (MHz) bandwidth. Its Uni-Core construction, in which the core and the base form one piece, increases reliability and conductivity as it reduces component size and cost. The leads are flush with the core, minimizing electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Pulse's C2139NL RF balun transformer is the first in a family of transformers that can be used worldwide in RF and cable magnetic applications for cable television (CATV), satellite set-top-box, terrestrial television equipment, video equipment and fibre-to-cable television termination devices.

Other applications include balanced to unbalanced signal conversion and aiding frequency impedance matching.

The C2139NL has an ultra-compact, surface-mount footprint of 0.120 x 0.150 inches.

Operating temperatures range from 0 to 70 degrees Celsius with an impedance ratio of 1:1 and typical insertion loss of less than 0.5 decibels.

It provides excellent signal integrity in a very small package for increasingly sophisticated RF applications.

The component is RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliant and meets Pb-free directives.

Parts are available in both tray and tape-and-reel packaging.
