Ultra-broadband performance realized with SMT inductors
AVX have today anounced the GLM and GLN Series, two new high frequency ultra-broadband inductor (UBL) series. The inductors providing extremely low insertion loss and excellent matching over multiple octaves of the frequency spectrum.
Due to the demand for repeatable and reliable ultra-broadband performance up through 40 GHz, AVX have designed the GLM and GLN Series to provide maximum inductance in a compact physical space. As AVX's Larry Eisenberger commented: “The new GLM and GLN Series inductors from AVX provide ultra-broadband performance in addition to ultra-low insertion loss, excellent return loss, and extreme part-to-part performance and repeatability, enabling their employment in both ultra-broadband decoupling networks and bias tee applications in optical communications systems, as well as in equipment using high speed digital logic.'
Available in two sizes, M and N, the GLM and GLN Series are rated for -55°C to +125°C and offer several critical performance advantages including: flat frequency response, excellent insertion and return loss, a rugged powdered iron core, and lead-free, RoHS compliant terminations.
