BAL-CW1250D3 50 nominal input / conjugate match balun to CW1250/CW1260/CW1150/CW1160, with integrated harmonic filter Description STMicroelectronics BAL-CW1250D3 is a balun (balanced/unbalanced device) designed to transform a single ended signal to differential signals in WLAN application. This BAL-CW1250D3, with low insertion losses in the bandwidth 2400 MHz to 2500 MHz, has been customized for CW1250, CW1150, CW1260, CW1160 transceiver. The differential output embeds an integrated matching network adapted to the transceiver.
