Detailed Description for TCN4-162+
Product Overview
TCN4-162+ targets broadband balanced/unbalanced interfaces from 720 MHz to 1.6 GHz in a compact production package. The 1:4 ratio establishes the intended relationship between the 1:4 unbalanced/balanced ports while performing balanced/unbalanced conversion. Confirmed selection data includes insertion loss of 1.0 dB maximum, return loss of 10.28 dB minimum, phase balance of 2°.
The monolithic LTCC construction provides a small, repeatable RF interface for production radio designs in which phase balance and land-pattern parasitics matter. The 1:4 impedance ratio strongly affects voltage and current transformation, so the ratio and winding orientation must remain unchanged in an approved BOM.

Quality & Sourcing
Antrex Electronics can support sourcing of TCN4-162+ for production, repair and shortage requirements. Incoming inspection should compare the exact ordering code, operating band, impedance ratio, package style and winding configuration. Alternative approval should be based on the confirmed electrical limits and PCB footprint rather than on a similar family name.
