Cover Story: This paper presents a new Marchand balun featuring the hybrid broadside and edge coupled structure. The current standalone broadside and edge coupled structures have reached the foundry process limitation. Their coupling coefficients are constrained by the vertical distance between metal layers for the broadside coupled structure and the minimum metal spacing between two adjacent metal strips for the edge coupled structure. The proposed hybrid structure maximizes the coupling coefficient and hence minimizes the balun insertion loss. Mathematical expressions are derived and supported by on-wafer measurements to verify the balun’s performance. View this paper.
