Wideband balun suitable for millimeter wave applications. An input stripline couples energy equally into branches of a slotline. Output striplines are coupled to the branches of the slotline to produce output signals 180 degrees out of phase. A phase matching section is placed in one output stripline so that the two output striplines are electrically equivalent in length. Using radial stub terminations, the resulting balun is compact and wideband.
