Abstract

A 180 degree ultraminiature phase shifter. Only two switching devices and very few passive circuit elements are required, thus allowing an extremely small and low loss device to be fabricated. When power is applied to switching devices, a low pass pi section low pass filter is realized which provides +90 degrees of phase shift. When power is absent from the switching devices, a T section high pass filter is realized which provides -90 degrees of phase shift.
