A Tunable Planar Balun with an Isolation Circuit Using Varactors Loaded Coupled Lines

In this paper, a frequency tunable planar balun composed of varactors loaded coupled lines (VL-CLs) is presented. By tuning the capacitances of the varactors, a wide frequency tuning range is obtained. Moreover, good impedance match, balanced output ports amplitude, and consistent output ports phase...
