Abstract
A BALUN transformer core material contains a Z-type hexagonal system ferrite having an in-plane anisotropy and a high magnetic permeability and such a high resonance frequency as to be in excess of a Snake's limiting line, and therefore, in the BALUN transformer core material, the frequency properties of the magnetic permeability are extremely good. A BALUN transformer core obtained by pressing and sintering this BALUN transformer core material has a high initial magnetic permeability and specific resistance. Moreover, a BALUN transformer obtained by applying a winding to the BALUN transformer core is provided with superior properties which are not poorer as compared with a BALUN transformer constituted of a conventional spinel ferrite, and it is a BALUN transformer having high properties which can be used in a high-frequency band of 300 MHz or more.
