Abstract :
This paper reports on miniaturized lumped-distributed balun for balanced filtering applications. Detailed analysis of suppression performance of the lumped-distributed balun is introduced. Different types of baluns and their interconnection in series with filter were considered. Baluns have been implemented using LTCC technology and experimentally validated.
