Mini-Circuits’ 75Ω
Balanced to Unbalanced
Transformer Supports
Applications from 1 to 400MHz
Mini-Circuits’ TRS1.33-1T-75+ 75Ω
RF
balanced-to-unbalanced
transformer covers the 1 to 400MHz
frequency range, supporting a
variety of applications including
impedance matching, push-pull
amplifiers and more. This model also
meets
upstream
bandwidth
requirements of the DOCSIS® 3.1
standard. It model provides an
impedance ratio (secondary/primary)
of 1.33:1, 0.6dB insertion loss, 1.1dB
amplitude unbalance, and 3˚phase
unbalance. It can handle up to 0.75W
RF power and 300mA DC current. A
secondary center tap allows DC feed
and DC bias without the need for
extra bias tees in the signal chain.
Featuring core and wire construction
with all-welded connections, the
transformer
measures
0.20×0.20×0.20”, saving space in
crowded
PCB
layouts.
Antenova announces two
flexible antennas: Bentoni and
Asper for positioning
applications with GNSS and
2.4-2.5GHz
Antenova Ltd, manufacturer of
antennas and RF antenna modules
for M2M and the Internet of Things,
is adding two new positioning
antennas, Bentoni and Asper, to its
range of flexible FPC antennas.
Bentoni is a positioning antenna
for all of the global public satellite
constellations: GPS, GLONASS,
Beidou and GALILEO. It is designed
to be used in trackers, portable
devices, network components,
drones and wearable electronics.
Asper is a dual antenna with two
separate antenna systems in a
single form factor. It combines a
1559 – 1609 MHz antenna with a
2.4 – 2.5 GHz antenna in the same
part for positioning applications
with wireless connectivity as well.
This antenna is suitable for sports
cameras, trackers, dash cams,
portable devices, network devices
and wearable electronics.
Both
antennas
offer
high
performance and maintain good
isolation in situ within a device.
Bentoni and Asper are the latest
flexible FPC antennas in Antenova’s
flexiiANT product range. They
are supplied with an I-PEX MHF
connector and a 1.13 mm RF cable
in a choice of three lengths. They can
be folded to save space in operation
within a device.
Antenova’s antenna design team
aims to create antennas that a
product designer can integrate
with the other circuits in a design
in a convenient way, rather than
designing a product to fit around the
antenna. The aim of these antenna
designs is plug and play simplicity –
they are self-adhesive mounted so
that they can easily be fixed inside
an electronic device.
Bentoni antenna andAsper antennas
are available to order now.
