AD9684 single ended to differential input matching circuit design

Category: Datasheet/Specs
Product Number: AD9684

Hello,

Looking at figure 39 on page 22 of the AD9684 datasheet (attached below) shows a suggested matching circuit to transform a single ended input to a differential input. I am trying to understand the design of each section and what each section does or what its purpose is. Would someone have a better idea that might be able to break it down for me?

I believe the first transformer is a common mode choke that converts single ended to differential. I am not at all sure what the purpose of the second transformer is or how some of the components after that were chosen. All I know is that we are trying to achieve a certain input impedance.
