In this work, a short wavelength microstrip line employing periodically arrayed capacitive elements (PACE) on GaAs monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) was developed for application to miniaturized on-chip passive components. The microstrip line employing PACE showed a wavelength much shorter than conventional transmission line. Concretely, the wavelength of the microstrip line employing PACE was only 10 % of conventional microstrip line on GaAs MMIC. Using the microstrip line employing PACE, a highly miniaturized impedance transformer was fabricated on GaAs MMIC. The impedance transformer showed good RF performances in a broad band from S to X band. Concretely, the return and insertion loss are −28 and −1.4 dB, respectively, at a center frequency of 7 GHz, and return loss values better than −10 dB were observed from 3.2 to 9.2 GHz, and insertion loss values of −1.5 ± 0.5 dB were observed in the above frequency range. The size of the impedance transformer was 0.042 mm2, which is 0.95 % of the size of the conventional transformer on MMIC. |
