RF Baluns are a form of 3-port transformer that converts between an unbalanced signal (one signal referenced to ground) and a balanced signal (two signals referenced to each other). The balanced signals are equal in amplitude and have a 180 degree phase shift between them. A balun can take many forms and may include devices that also transform impedances. Transformers are used to connect transmission lines of differing impedances.
IPP offers rf baluns for push-pull amplifiers, antenna drivers, amateur radio, commercial and military applications in frequencies ranging from 20-2500 MHz. Baluns can be customized for your project.

Impedance Transformers:
IPP’s line of surface mount single-ended impedance transformers are engineered for commercial, industrial, and military applications. These are discrete components, offering a small, pick-and-place capable solution for space-constrained designs where impedance matching presents a challenge. With our technology, we can offer these unbalanced to unbalanced transformers (Single Ended) in a wide variety of impedance ratios while maintaining a compact design in frequencies ranging from 20 to 6000 MHz.
