Abstract

A circuit includes a common terminal, a first terminal, and a second terminal. The common terminal is coupled to first and second circuit branches at a branch node. The first and second circuit branches include a first and second quarter wavelength transmission line having a first end coupled to the branch node and a second end coupled to the first and second terminals. The first and second terminals are coupled together via a branch-interconnection arrangement. The circuit includes a first switched arrangement with a first switch having a first and second switch-terminal. The first switch-terminal is coupled to the common terminal, and a first resistor and a first capacitor are arranged in parallel and coupled between the second switch-terminal and a reference terminal. The circuit also includes a second switched arrangement coupled to the first terminal. The first quarter wavelength transmission line is coupled between the first and second switched arrangements.
