Abstract

A connector assembly, and associated method, connects a first circuit element portion and a second circuit element portion of a radio frequency circuit device together. Isolated conduction of a radio frequency signal between the first and second circuit element portions is provided. Appropriate selection of the relative dimensions of the connector assembly permits the characteristic impedance of the connector assembly to match the characteristic impedance of the circuit element portions.
