What are the key features of MABA-010143-FLUX18?

  • Wideband 1:8 impedance ratio transformer operating from 2 MHz to 500 MHz for RF impedance matching and signal coupling
  • Center-tapped secondary enables balanced-to-unbalanced (BALUN) conversion with only 2 dB insertion loss across the full band
  • Compact 2.54 mm surface-mount package in tape-and-reel format supports high-volume automated RF PCB assembly

What is MABA-010143-FLUX18 used for?

The MABA-010143-FLUX18 is used for impedance matching and signal transformation in RF amplifier stages, mixers, and communications receivers operating between 2 MHz and 500 MHz. Its center-tapped secondary and 1:8 impedance ratio make it ideal for balanced-to-unbalanced (BALUN) conversion in shortwave radio, cable TV, and wireless LAN front-end circuits. The low 2 dB insertion loss preserves signal power across wideband RF transmission and reception systems.
