Detailed Description for TCM1-1X+
Product Overview
Designed for 1.5 MHz to 500 MHz, TCM1-1X+ combines wideband transformer coupling with a defined 1:1 impedance relationship. The unity ratio preserves the nominal 50 Ω / 50 Ω relationship while providing isolation and conversion between single-ended and differential nodes. Confirmed selection limits include insertion loss of 3 dB maximum, return loss of 7.88 dB minimum, phase balance of 4°, amplitude balance of 0.2 dB maximum.
The usable range crosses IF, HF, VHF and much of the UHF spectrum, which suits broadband equipment that cannot be served by a narrow tuned balun. The X-family suffix identifies a top-hat or flat-lead construction that should be matched to the approved PCB footprint. Published absolute limits include RF power 0.25 W and DC current 30 mA. The installed result also requires the published land pattern and electrically symmetrical balanced connections.

Quality & Sourcing
Antrex Electronics can support sourcing of TCM1-1X+ for production, repair and shortage requirements. Incoming verification should compare the exact ordering code, frequency band, impedance relationship, package style and any center-tap or suffix-specific configuration. A part from the same transformer family should not be substituted solely because its headline bandwidth overlaps.
