A simple two-conductor coupled-line model is used to analyze the Marchand balun and simplify the analysis significantly. Two monolithic balanced frequency doublers with miniature Marchand baluns are implemented to verify the design procedure. Both the chips achieve the smallest chip sizes at their operating frequencies with comparable performance. © 2007 IEEE.Balun; Diode; Frequency doubler; Marchand balun; Monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC)conference paper10.1109/TMTT.2007.8976892-s2.0-34250185403
