Abstract

This paper presents a LTCC Balun-BPF, which is a BPF(bandpass filter) with a Balun in a single LTCC chip for the direct interface with a MIC chip having balanced inputs. The physical dimension of the designed Balun-BPE is $2.4{\times}2.0{\times}0.88m^3$ and the used dielectric constant ${\varepsilon}_r$ is 36. A Balun of three-lines structure with striplines and a BPF of comb-line structure was combined into the Balun-BPF. The simulated result shows 4.8dB of insertion loss, $178{\sim}179$ degree of the phase imbalance, 14dB of the return
