Compact RF Signal Conversion for Modern Wireless Designs
Why Use an LTCC Balun?
RF baluns provide the electrical interface between balanced RF IC ports and single-ended transmission structures. In compact wireless products, conventional wound transformers may consume excessive board space.
LTCC technology integrates the required RF structure into a multilayer ceramic package. This allows engineers to reduce component size while maintaining repeatable RF characteristics during automated PCB assembly.
Typical design considerations include insertion loss, return loss, impedance transformation, power handling, operating frequency and package footprint.
