Abstract

This invention provides an impedance converter that achieves impedance matching using a coaxial cable. [Solution] The impedance converter 1 comprises a first coaxial terminal 10, a second coaxial terminal 20, a first coaxial cable 30, and a second coaxial cable 40. At the first end E301 of the first coaxial cable, the first central conductor 31 is connected to the first terminal central conductor 11, the second end E302 forms an open end, and the first outer conductor 33 is connected to the first terminal outer conductor 13. At the third end E401 of the second coaxial cable, the second central conductor 41 is connected to the second terminal central conductor 21 and the first outer conductor 33, and the second outer conductor 43 is connected to the second terminal outer conductor 23. At the fourth end E402, the second central conductor 41 and the second outer conductor 43 are electrically connected to form a short-circuit end. The length of the second coaxial cable and the length LEG31 of the first central conductor are based on the impedance Za connected to the first coaxial terminal and the impedance Zb connected to the second coaxial terminal.
