Abstract
A balun section formed of a pair of transmission lines connected between separate pairs of corresponding input and output terminals with a pair of capacitors connected in series between the output terminals and another transmission line connected in series with a resistor between the circuit ground and the interconnection between the pair of capacitors. A multisection balun is constructed from a plurality of such balun sections connected in cascade. In one embodiment, the outputs of a pair of multisection baluns are supplied to a circuit such as a mixer or the like.
