Model BD2425NCSR Rev C Ultra Low Profile 0404 Balun for the Cambridge Silicon Radio M1824 UNIFI-1 Chipset Description The BD2425NCSR is a low cost, low profile sub-miniature unbalanced to balanced transformer designed specifically for Cambridge Silicon Radio’s UNITI-1 WiFi chipset. The BD2425NCSR is ideal for high volume manufacturing and delivers higher performance than traditional ceramic baluns. The BD2425NCSR matched exactly to the differential port impedances of the UNIFI-1 device. The BD2425NCSR enables single ended signals to be applied to differential ports of this Cambridge Silicon Radio chipsets. The output ports have equal amplitude (-3dB) with 180 degree phase differential. The BD2425NCSR is available on tape and reel for pick and place high volume manufacturing.

If this condition is not satisfied, insertion loss, Isolation and VSWR may not meet published specifications. All of the Xinger components are constructed from ceramic filled PTFE composites which possess excellent electrical o and mechanical stability having X and Y thermal coefficient of expansion (CTE) of 17 ppm/ C. An example PCB footprint of Anaren’s 0404 balun (BD2425NCSR) with MUR 0402 inductor (1.6nHLQG15HS1n6s02) and ATC 0402 capacitor (6.8pF – 600L6R8) used in the testing is shown below. In specific designs, the transmission line widths need to be adjusted to the unique dielectric coefficients and thicknesses as well as varying pick and place equipment tolerances.
