Novel miniaturised wideband baluns for MIC and MMIC applications Academic Article

abstract

• Very compact novel planar broadband baluns are described. Each balun consists of two Lange couplers. Less than 0-3 dB and 2.5 for the amplitude and phase balances, respectively, have been measured over the 1.0-2.2 GHz bandwidth for a microstrip balun. As compared with other reported baluns, these baluns are simpler, more compact, easier to design, and fabricated on only one side of the substrate. They are thus very attractive for microwave integrated (MIC) and monolithic integrated circuit (MMIC) applications. 1993, The Institution of Electrical Engineers. All rights reserved.
