• Unun vs Balun - Configurations and differences - If you ever asked if you need an Unun or a Balun this article is for you. The right question should be do I need a feed line choke or an impedance transformer whose output is configured as balanced or as unbalanced. An impedance transformer can be configured as a voltage transformer or as a current transformer.

• mini Ring-Core-Calculator - Calculate windings on ferrite cores - The program can be used to calculate inductors (coils) and their number of turns on ferrite cores, ferrite shells and air coils. These can be used for baluns, Ununs, bandpass filters, low pass filters, resonant circuits, and more. The technical specifications of the cores are already integrated in the program. Application is free and runs on Windows 32 bit versions only. To make it run on Windows 10 64 bit need to be unzipped in a single folder.
