  • Abstract
    The authors described a 2-18-GHz continuously variable phase shifter realized in a GaAs monolithic technology. It comprises in an 8.2*3 mm/sup 2/ area, one distributed amplifier, a four-orthogonal-vector circuit, and three active two-port combiners. Good temperature performance was obtained, with typical variations of 0. 025 dB/ degrees C and 0.3 deg/ degrees C. Features of circuit fabrication and device control are discussed.<>
