HL9403 Broadband Drop-In Balun (20 GHz)

DISCONTINUED

The HL9403 is a drop-in broadband balun with typical ± 0.25 dB amplitude match from 5 MHz to 20 GHz (-3 dB) and ± 2 degree phase match typical at 10 GHz.

This product is optimized for use in high-speed analog-to-digital conversion, differential signal generation, harmonic distortion minimization, and pulse inversion.

The HL9403 is designed to be installed onto printed circuit boards, offering unmatched on-board performance for aerospace, R&D, and other cutting-edge applications.

An SMA connector version of this balun is available as the HL9402, while the HL9404 offers an extended 40 GHz bandwidth.
