GL Series Ultra Broad Band Inductor ADVANTAGES APPLICATIONS • Ultra Broad Band Performance • Communication Customers • Ultra-Low Insertion Loss • Receiver Optical Sub-Assemblies • Excellent Return Loss Through 40 GHz • Transimpedance Amplifier Customers • Flat Frequency Response • Test Equipment Manufacturers • Part to Part Performance Repeatability • Rugged Powdered Iron Core The GL Series was developed specifically to deliver repeatable and reliable Ultra Broad Band performance up through 40 + GHz. The GL Series of inductors provide Ultra-Low Insertion loss, excellent return loss and extreme part to part performance repeatability. The pyramid shape of the GL Series provides for maximum inductance in the space available. The GL Series was developed using a powdered iron core and gold plated terminations that allow for easy use in hand solder applications. The combination of Flat Frequency Response with the Ultra-Low Insertion loss makes this an ideal component for optical data systems, transimpedance amplifers and test equipment.
