balun
<electronics> A transformer connected between a balanced
source or load and an unbalanced source or load. A balanced
line has two conductors, with equal currents in opposite
directions. The unbalanced line has just one conductor; the
current in it returns via a common ground or earth path.

Balun
A balun (from "balanced to unbalanced", originally, but now dated from "balancing unit") is an electrical device that allows balanced and unbalanced lines to be interfaced without disturbing the impedance arrangement of either line. A balun can take many forms and may include devices that also transform impedances but need not do so. Sometimes, in the case of transformer baluns, they use magnetic coupling but need not do so. Common-mode chokes are also used as baluns and work by eliminating, rather than rejecting, common mode signals.
Examples of use of BALUN
