Abstract :
The basic concept and features are presented of double-sided microwave integrated circuits (double-sided MICs), which effectively utilize various kinds of transmission lines on both sides of a substrate. The fundamental circuits such as 180° hybrids (magic Ts) and many application circuits described here are very useful in developing microwave and millimeter-wave band equipment. The concept of the double-sided MIC technique is also suitable for application to monolithic MICs
