Analysis and design of lumped element Marchand baluns
Publication: Research › Article in proceedings – Annual report year: 2008
In this paper a novel design procedure for lumped element Marchand baluns is proposed. An analysis is performed on the balun structure in order to determine the conditions for ideal balun performance in terms of the lumped element values. The analysis is verified by two broadband designs centered around 22.75 GHz and differing only in terms of their impedance transformation ratio. EM simulation results on our proposed lumped element Marchand balun structure predicts an insertion loss of 4 dB and return loss of 40 dB at the design frequency of 22.75 GHz. The amplitude and phase imbalance is predicted to be better than 1 dB and 60, respectively obtained over a wide 15 GHz bandwidth.
