Detailed Description for NCS4-442+
Product Overview
NCS4-442+ is a Mini-Circuits ceramic LTCC RF balun transformer used for RF balanced/unbalanced conversion and impedance transformation. The confirmed published data for this exact ordering code is Frequency Range: 3300 MHz to 4200 MHz; Impedance Ratio: 1:4; Insertion Loss: 1.0 dB typ; Package / Case: 0805-class Mini-Circuits LTCC package. These values make the part suitable for 3.3-4.2 GHz wireless, fixed-satellite and radar RF paths. In RF layouts the balun is normally placed close to the RFIC, mixer, amplifier or antenna matching network; the published ratio, passband and package should be preserved when replacing the part in an approved BOM.
