Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of monolithic microwave integrated circuits, and particularly relates to a miniaturized high-reliability equalizer. Background Art

[0002] An equalizer is a device that improves the in-band flatness index by different amplitudes in each frequency band within a frequency band. It is manufactured using GaAs technology, miniaturizes and densifies discrete devices and microstrips, making such devices have broad application prospects in the military field.

[0003] Equalizers are generally divided into two structures: fixed-resistance type and non-fixed-resistance type. The non-fixed-resistance type amplitude equalizer has a simple structure, fewer components, and fewer parasitic parameters generated by the layout. The disadvantage is that the standing wave is poor and it needs to be used in combination with an attenuator. The fixed-resistance type amplitude equalizer has a relatively complex structure, more components, and electromagnetic field simulation should be carried out during layout to adjust the layout to reduce the mutual interference between components.
