Abstract :
Design, fabrication and performance of a X-band 5-bit GaAs MMIC phase shifter are described. It exhibits low RMS phase error (<1.7 degrees), good VSWR (<1.3), low insertion loss (<8.3 dB) and low insertion loss variation (<±0.5 dB) for all thirty-two phase states over the entire operational bandwidth in the 9.2~10.3 GHz frequency range
